About the Mega nRF feedthrough PCB

Mega nRF feedthrough is an open source AVR/Arduino PCB design by michaelshiloh, published on GitHub under the AGPL-3.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 99.3 × 53.6 mm, with 7 components from 6 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the Arduino_Mega2560_R3_Shield, from the AVR/Arduino family. Other key parts include the NRF24L01_Breakout and AP2127N-3.3. By type, the board carries 4 capacitors, 2 ICs and 1 module.

It belongs with the robotics & motion and dev boards & breakouts designs in this gallery.

Some PCBs I have designed to help with my classes and other projects: - ArduinoShieldHobbyRCAndMotorControl: Holes for 6 wires to connect to an L298 (or similary) dual H-bridge motor driver, and six connectors suitable for a hobby RC receiver. Used in Performing Robots but could be useful to anyone connecting an Arduino Uno to a hobby RC receiver or an L298 dual H-bridge motor driver. - ICsockets/16PinSocketAPC: breakout board for a 14 pin DIP, with silkscreen markings aimed at making at Atari Punk Console. I'll add a link to the full instructions when I find them. - nRFservoMega: Arduino…

Mega nRF feedthrough: common questions

What microcontroller does the Mega nRF feedthrough use?

The Mega nRF feedthrough is built around the Arduino_Mega2560_R3_Shield, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the Mega nRF feedthrough PCB?

The Mega nRF feedthrough measures 99.3 × 53.6 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Mega nRF feedthrough?

7 components, from 6 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Mega nRF feedthrough design files?

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

Can I use the Mega nRF feedthrough design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its AGPL-3.0 license, which michaelshiloh chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Mega nRF feedthrough 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.
