ECE455 SP26: common questions

What microcontroller does the ECE455 SP26 use?

The ECE455 SP26 is built around the Raspberry_Pi_4, from the Raspberry Pi family.

How big is the ECE455 SP26 PCB?

The ECE455 SP26 measures 104 × 81 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the ECE455 SP26?

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

Where can I download the ECE455 SP26 design files?

From the NStrachen/ECE455_SP26 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the ECE455 SP26 design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the ECE455 SP26 without the hardware?

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