FINAL CONTROL BOARD: common questions
What microcontroller does the FINAL CONTROL BOARD use?
The FINAL CONTROL BOARD is built around the DEV-16771, from the NXP family.
How big is the FINAL CONTROL BOARD?
The FINAL CONTROL BOARD measures 140.5 × 71.5 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the FINAL CONTROL BOARD?
50 components, from 33 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the FINAL CONTROL BOARD design files?
From the nyu-rdt/RDT26-EE repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the FINAL CONTROL BOARD design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with nyu-rdt. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the FINAL CONTROL BOARD without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug NXP firmware against it before you order a PCB.
