Radioberry: common questions

What microcontroller does the Radioberry use?

The Radioberry is built around the FPGA, from the FPGA family.

How big is the Radioberry PCB?

The Radioberry measures 65 × 56 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Radioberry?

143 components, from 32 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 Radioberry design files?

From the saktheeswaranswan/Ham-monk-RadioBerry-V2.0---Ham-radio-cape-for-Raspberry-PI repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Radioberry design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the Radioberry without the hardware?

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