Frank next proto: common questions
What microcontroller does the Frank next proto use?
The Frank next proto is built around the RP2350B, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.
How big is the Frank next proto PCB?
The Frank next proto measures 80.6 × 54 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Frank next proto?
204 components, from 82 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the Frank next proto design files?
From the rh1tech/frank-lab repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Frank next proto design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its GPL-3.0 license, which rh1tech chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the Frank next proto 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.
