About the Programmer PCB

Programmer is an open source RP2040/RP2350 PCB design by jerry-kerenzikov, published on GitHub under the CERN-OHL-S-2.0 license. It is a 4-layer board measuring 100 × 41.5 mm, with 24 components from 8 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the RaspberryPi_Pico, from the RP2040/RP2350 family. Other key parts include the 74HC595 and 74HC165. By type, the board carries 13 resistors, 4 ICs, 4 capacitors, 1 module, 1 connector and 1 switch.

It belongs with the usb & debug tools designs in this gallery.

Programmer: common questions

What microcontroller does the Programmer use?

The Programmer is built around the RaspberryPi_Pico, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the Programmer PCB?

The Programmer measures 100 × 41.5 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.62516 mm thick.

How many components are on the Programmer?

24 components, from 8 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Programmer design files?

From the jerry-kerenzikov/ytterbium repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Programmer design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its CERN-OHL-S-2.0 license, which jerry-kerenzikov chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Programmer 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.
