WaveWise Buoy: common questions

What microcontroller does the WaveWise Buoy use?

The WaveWise Buoy is built around the ATMEGA328PB-ANR, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the WaveWise Buoy PCB?

The WaveWise Buoy measures 67.8 × 76.2 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the WaveWise Buoy?

47 components, from 29 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the WaveWise Buoy design files?

From the GenerateNU/WaveWise repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the WaveWise Buoy design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with GenerateNU. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the WaveWise Buoy without the hardware?

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