Fmcw nightly: common questions
What microcontroller does the Fmcw nightly use?
The Fmcw nightly is built around the XC7A15T-FTG256, from the FPGA family.
How big is the Fmcw nightly PCB?
The Fmcw nightly measures 94.6 × 83.4 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6002 mm thick.
How many components are on the Fmcw nightly?
424 components, from 116 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the Fmcw nightly design files?
From the matthuszagh/fmcw repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Fmcw nightly design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its Apache-2.0 license, which matthuszagh chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the Fmcw nightly without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug FPGA firmware against it before you order a PCB.
