PRR Position Light Signals based on an ATTiny20 ----------------------------------------------- Thumb for scale.

PRR Position Light Signals based on an ATTiny20 ----------------------------------------------- Thumb for scale.

The Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR), almost uniquely among railroads, used Position Light Signals (PLS) [[1]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NorthAmericanrailroadsignals#Positionlight_signals) [[2]](https://railroadsignals.us/signals/pl/pl.htm). (The Norfolk & Western used Colored Position Lights (CPL) [[2]]([https://railroadsignals.us/signals/pl/pl.htm) which were similar.)

Prrplsattiny20 kikit panel: common questions

What microcontroller does the Prrplsattiny20 kikit panel use?

The Prrplsattiny20 kikit panel is built around the ATTINY20-UUR, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the Prrplsattiny20 kikit panel PCB?

The Prrplsattiny20 kikit panel measures 57 × 57 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 0.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Prrplsattiny20 kikit panel?

18 components, from 7 distinct parts, with part numbers taken from the project's own BOM. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Prrplsattiny20 kikit panel design files?

From the jimktrains/prrplsattiny20 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Prrplsattiny20 kikit panel design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with jimktrains. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the Prrplsattiny20 kikit panel 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.
