Katana60: common questions

What microcontroller does the Katana60 use?

The Katana60 is built around the ATmega32U4-AU, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the Katana60 PCB?

The Katana60 measures 285 × 95.1 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Katana60?

180 components, from 101 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Katana60 design files?

From the rominronin/Katana60 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Katana60 design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with rominronin. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the Katana60 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.
