RP2040-Radio-Panel: common questions

What microcontroller does the RP2040-Radio-Panel use?

The RP2040-Radio-Panel is built around the RP2040, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the RP2040-Radio-Panel PCB?

The RP2040-Radio-Panel has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the RP2040-Radio-Panel?

57 components, from 17 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the RP2040-Radio-Panel design files?

From the neilenns/RP2040-Radio-Panel repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the RP2040-Radio-Panel design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the RP2040-Radio-Panel 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.
