P8B-Controller: common questions

What microcontroller does the P8B-Controller use?

The P8B-Controller is built around the 317030026, from the Nordic nRF family.

How big is the P8B-Controller PCB?

The P8B-Controller measures 114 × 48 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the P8B-Controller?

42 components, from 17 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 P8B-Controller design files?

From the longhoangcode/P8B-Controller repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the P8B-Controller design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its CC-BY-SA-4.0 license, which longhoangcode chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the P8B-Controller 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.
