APC Mother: common questions
What microcontroller does the APC Mother use?
The APC Mother is built around the NCR2-113+, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.
How big is the APC Mother PCB?
The APC Mother measures 132.5 × 100 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the APC Mother?
21 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 APC Mother design files?
From the leonardobove/qpcb 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 APC Mother design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with leonardobove. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the APC Mother 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.
