USB duck v3: common questions

What microcontroller does the USB duck v3 use?

The USB duck v3 is built around the RP2040, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the USB duck v3 PCB?

The USB duck v3 measures 30.8 × 50 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 0.8 mm thick.

How many components are on the USB duck v3?

77 components, from 32 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the USB duck v3 design files?

From the Freimor/HRDW-Automaton_v3 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the USB duck v3 design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which Freimor chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the USB duck v3 without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug RP2040/RP2350 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
