Main: common questions

What microcontroller does the Main use?

The Main is built around the ATMEGA8-P, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the Main PCB?

The Main measures 158.8 × 65.7 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Main?

116 components, from 35 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Main design files?

From the qweqq/dwmb repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Main design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which qweqq chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Main without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug AVR/Arduino firmware against it before you order a PCB.
