PicoForestX4: common questions

What microcontroller does the PicoForestX4 use?

The PicoForestX4 is built around the Pico, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the PicoForestX4 PCB?

The PicoForestX4 measures 49.5 × 91.2 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the PicoForestX4?

42 components, from 16 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the PicoForestX4 design files?

From the MetaluNetProjects/GamesOfLight repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the PicoForestX4 design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its GPL-3.0 license, which MetaluNetProjects chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the PicoForestX4 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.
