StratosCore: common questions
What microcontroller does the StratosCore use?
The StratosCore is built around the RP2040, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.
How big is the StratosCore PCB?
The StratosCore measures 60 × 84 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the StratosCore?
245 components, from 107 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 StratosCore design files?
From the pantojinho/StratosCore 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 StratosCore design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with pantojinho. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the StratosCore 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.
