ProofOfConceptBoardV1: common questions

What microcontroller does the ProofOfConceptBoardV1 use?

The ProofOfConceptBoardV1 is built around the Arduino_Nano_v3.x, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the ProofOfConceptBoardV1 PCB?

The ProofOfConceptBoardV1 measures 86 × 45.2 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the ProofOfConceptBoardV1?

40 components, from 14 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the ProofOfConceptBoardV1 design files?

From the MST-Robotics/TITAN-Electrical repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the ProofOfConceptBoardV1 design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the ProofOfConceptBoardV1 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.
