3 open source boards using the VTL5C

Real designs built with the VTL5C, from public GitHub projects: a quick way to see how others power, decouple and connect it. Each board comes with its KiCad files, full parts list and a render — and you can simulate its firmware on HardLabs.

Microcontrollers on boards using the VTL5C

What boards using the VTL5C are built for

VTL5C: common questions

Where can I find a VTL5C reference design?

Each of the 3 boards on this page is a real design using the VTL5C. Open one to see how it is wired up, with the full BOM, a render of the layout and links to its KiCad files.

Which microcontrollers do boards using the VTL5C use?

Most are built on AVR/Arduino (1).

How big is a typical board using the VTL5C?

The median is 30.5 × 68.6 mm, and 67% are two-layer designs.

What is the most popular open source board using the VTL5C?

By GitHub stars, Hihat by bread-modular, with 65 stars.

Can I simulate one of these boards using the VTL5C before building it?

Yes. HardLabs turns a board's netlist and BOM into a working simulation, so you can boot and test firmware against it with no hardware on your desk.
