7seg8bit: common questions
What microcontroller does the 7seg8bit use?
The 7seg8bit is built around the ATmega328P-AU, from the AVR/Arduino family.
How big is the 7seg8bit PCB?
The 7seg8bit measures 43.9 × 19.8 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the 7seg8bit?
20 components, from 15 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the 7seg8bit design files?
From the hotkeysoft/7seg8bit-kicad repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the 7seg8bit design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which hotkeysoft chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the 7seg8bit 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.
