Cantactpro: common questions

What microcontroller does the Cantactpro use?

The Cantactpro is built around the LPC54616J512BD100, from the NXP family.

How big is the Cantactpro PCB?

The Cantactpro measures 112.5 × 85.5 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Cantactpro?

79 components, from 40 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Cantactpro design files?

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

Can I use the Cantactpro design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its GPL-3.0 license, which humancomputerintegration chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Cantactpro without the hardware?

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