Low profile: common questions

What microcontroller does the Low profile use?

The Low profile is built around the RP2040, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the Low profile PCB?

The Low profile measures 228.8 × 76.2 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Low profile?

123 components, from 20 distinct parts, with part numbers taken from the project's own BOM. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Low profile design files?

From the ryoo14/rhyn47 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Low profile design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with ryoo14. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the Low profile 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.
