Modular device base 3x2: common questions

What microcontroller does the Modular device base 3x2 use?

The Modular device base 3x2 is built around the TEENSY_3.2, from the NXP family.

How big is the Modular device base 3x2 PCB?

The Modular device base 3x2 measures 85.1 × 41.9 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Modular device base 3x2?

36 components, from 20 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Modular device base 3x2 design files?

From the janelia-kicad/modular_device_base_3x2 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Modular device base 3x2 design in my own project?

It is published under Custom license, which limits how it may be reused; read the license before building on it.

Can I test firmware for the Modular device base 3x2 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.
