About the RP2040 Template PCB

RP2040 Template is an open source RP2040/RP2350 PCB design by palginpav, published on GitHub under the Apache-2.0 license. It is a 4-layer board measuring 20.3 × 48.3 mm, with 44 components from 18 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the RP2040, from the RP2040/RP2350 family. Other key parts include the AZ1117R-3.3TRE1 and W25Q128JVS. By type, the board carries 18 capacitors, 9 resistors, 8 diodes, 4 connectors, 3 ICs and 1 crystal.

It belongs with the dev boards & breakouts designs in this gallery.

From the project

AI-assisted place & route for KiCad — datasheet-grounded schematic review, constraint generation for autorouting, analytical placement

AI-assisted place & route for KiCad — schematic review with datasheet grounding, constraint generation for autorouting, and analytical placement. Open source, local-first.

Autorouters disappoint not because the solvers are weak, but because nobody feeds them the constraints that make routing meaningful — net classes, differential pairs, length rules, fanout strategy. Schematic review tools check syntax, not electronics. TraceWise applies LLMs exactly where they help:

RP2040 Template: common questions

What microcontroller does the RP2040 Template use?

The RP2040 Template is built around the RP2040, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the RP2040 Template PCB?

The RP2040 Template measures 20.3 × 48.3 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.59 mm thick.

How many components are on the RP2040 Template?

44 components, from 18 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the RP2040 Template design files?

From the palginpav/tracewise 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 Template design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its Apache-2.0 license, which palginpav chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the RP2040 Template 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.
