Easyboard: common questions

What microcontroller does the Easyboard use?

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

How big is the Easyboard PCB?

The Easyboard measures 21 × 65 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Easyboard?

31 components, from 15 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 Easyboard design files?

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

Can I use the Easyboard design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the Easyboard 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.
