EduBoard PIC16: common questions
What microcontroller does the EduBoard PIC16 use?
The EduBoard PIC16 is built around the PIC16F877A-IP, from the PIC family.
How big is the EduBoard PIC16 PCB?
The EduBoard PIC16 measures 193.5 × 141 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the EduBoard PIC16?
72 components, from 24 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the EduBoard PIC16 design files?
From the hassan-ibn-mustafa/EduBoard_PIC16 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the EduBoard PIC16 design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with hassan-ibn-mustafa. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the EduBoard PIC16 without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug PIC firmware against it before you order a PCB.
