Ascom wireless flat panel: common questions

What microcontroller does the Ascom wireless flat panel use?

The Ascom wireless flat panel is built around the Adafruit Feather nRF52840 Express, from the Nordic nRF family.

How big is the Ascom wireless flat panel PCB?

The Ascom wireless flat panel measures 66.5 × 51.3 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Ascom wireless flat panel?

13 components, from 6 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Ascom wireless flat panel design files?

From the jlecomte/ascom-wireless-flat-panel repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Ascom wireless flat panel design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which jlecomte chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Ascom wireless flat panel without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug Nordic nRF firmware against it before you order a PCB.
