HalfLife-Week1: common questions

What microcontroller does the HalfLife-Week1 use?

The HalfLife-Week1 is built around the RaspberryPi_Pico, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the HalfLife-Week1 PCB?

The HalfLife-Week1 measures 69 × 88.5 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the HalfLife-Week1?

5 components, from 3 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 HalfLife-Week1 design files?

From the Len0v0CZ/HalfLife-Week1 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 HalfLife-Week1 design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with Len0v0CZ. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the HalfLife-Week1 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.
