About the Odyssey PCB

Odyssey is an open source RP2040/RP2350 PCB design by MeghanaM4, published on GitHub under the MIT license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 20.9 × 26 mm, with 7 components from 7 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the XIAO-RP2040-SMD, from the RP2040/RP2350 family. Other key parts include the I3G4250DTR, IIS2MDCTR and MPL3115A2. By type, the board carries 4 ICs, 2 capacitors and 1 connector.

It belongs with the displays & leds and sensors designs in this gallery, and the repository also holds 1 earlier revision of it.

From the project

for apex.hackclub.com

I have been in love with space for as long as I can remember, so when I heard Hack Club was letting teenagers send whatever they want 113,000 feet in the air I knew I had to do it. We get $100 per person to make an invention that'll go onto a high altitude balloon (HAB), and if you spend 30 hours on it you'll get to go to Boston for a hackathon where everyone will launch their payloads at the same time and make cool stuff.

Odyssey: common questions

What microcontroller does the Odyssey use?

The Odyssey is built around the XIAO-RP2040-SMD, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the Odyssey PCB?

The Odyssey measures 20.9 × 26 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Odyssey?

7 components, from 7 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Odyssey design files?

From the MeghanaM4/Odyssey repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Odyssey design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which MeghanaM4 chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Odyssey 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.
