ATMega8 Minimum System: common questions

What microcontroller does the ATMega8 Minimum System use?

The ATMega8 Minimum System is built around the ATmega8A-A, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the ATMega8 Minimum System PCB?

The ATMega8 Minimum System measures 28.9 × 35.4 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the ATMega8 Minimum System?

22 components, from 12 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the ATMega8 Minimum System design files?

From the mekatronik-achmadi/atmega-dev repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the ATMega8 Minimum System design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with mekatronik-achmadi. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the ATMega8 Minimum System without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug AVR/Arduino firmware against it before you order a PCB.
