About the Fade PCB

Fade is an open source AVR/Arduino PCB design by konspyre, published on GitHub under the Custom license license. It is a board measuring 34.7 × 16.8 mm, with 14 components from 12 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the ATTINY85-P, from the AVR/Arduino family. By type, the board carries 5 resistors, 3 connectors, 3 diodes, 2 capacitors and 1 IC.

It belongs with the dev boards & breakouts designs in this gallery.

From the project

A USB volume controller

This is a generalized development board for V-USB, using the ATTiny85 without a crystal.

The board files are free for re-use, modification, and manufacture without restriction.

The repository here contains KiCAD sources (schematic/board files), basic V-USB code that implements a key-based HID media controller (with modifications for this board) and a Bill of Materials listing.

Fade: common questions

What microcontroller does the Fade use?

The Fade is built around the ATTINY85-P, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the Fade PCB?

The Fade measures 34.7 × 16.8 mm and is 1.6002 mm thick.

How many components are on the Fade?

14 components, from 12 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Fade design files?

From the konspyre/fade repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Fade design in my own project?

It is published under Custom license, which limits how it may be reused; read the license before building on it.

Can I test firmware for the Fade 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.
