Pican usb: common questions
What microcontroller does the Pican usb use?
The Pican usb is built around the PIC18F26K83-I/SS, from the PIC family.
How big is the Pican usb PCB?
The Pican usb measures 89.8 × 55.3 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Pican usb?
42 components, from 24 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 Pican usb design files?
From the marcinbor85/pican-usb repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Pican usb design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its GPL-3.0 license, which marcinbor85 chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the Pican usb without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug PIC firmware against it before you order a PCB.
