T-Modem c1224: common questions

What microcontroller does the T-Modem c1224 use?

The T-Modem c1224 is built around the RPi-Pico, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the T-Modem c1224 PCB?

The T-Modem c1224 measures 180 × 180 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the T-Modem c1224?

19 components, from 13 distinct parts, with part numbers taken from the project's own BOM. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the T-Modem c1224 design files?

From the PacketRadio80/T-Modem-c1224 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the T-Modem c1224 design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its GPL-3.0 license, which PacketRadio80 chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the T-Modem c1224 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.
