Quasar Debugger: common questions
What microcontroller does the Quasar Debugger use?
The Quasar Debugger is built around the STM32F030F4Px, from the STM32 family.
How big is the Quasar Debugger PCB?
The Quasar Debugger measures 56.2 × 49 mm, has 6 copper layers and is 1.5584 mm thick.
How many components are on the Quasar Debugger?
118 components, from 53 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the Quasar Debugger design files?
From the petrinm/QuasarSDR-Hardware repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Quasar Debugger design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its CERN-OHL-W-2.0 license, which petrinm chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the Quasar Debugger without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug STM32 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
