Headunit pi4: common questions
What microcontroller does the Headunit pi4 use?
The Headunit pi4 is built around the RASPBERRY_PI_4B_4GB, from the Raspberry Pi family.
How big is the Headunit pi4 PCB?
The Headunit pi4 measures 193.7 × 97.1 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Headunit pi4?
19 components, from 15 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the Headunit pi4 design files?
From the Jimbo145/SaabHeadUnit repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Headunit pi4 design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with Jimbo145. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the Headunit pi4 without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug Raspberry Pi firmware against it before you order a PCB.
