Testing hardware: common questions
What microcontroller does the Testing hardware use?
The Testing hardware is built around the ATSAMD21J18A-AU, from the Microchip SAM family.
How big is the Testing hardware PCB?
The Testing hardware measures 220 × 145.5 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Testing hardware?
336 components, from 89 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 Testing hardware design files?
From the ParadigmHyperloop/testing-hardware repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Testing hardware design in my own project?
It is published under Custom license, which limits how it may be reused; read the license before building on it.
Can I test firmware for the Testing hardware without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug Microchip SAM firmware against it before you order a PCB.
