Viper: common questions

What microcontroller does the Viper use?

The Viper is built around the Pico, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the Viper PCB?

The Viper measures 239.5 × 193.7 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Viper?

49 components, from 18 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Viper design files?

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

Can I use the Viper design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MPL-2.0 license, which gleich chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Viper 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.
