Hardware: common questions
What microcontroller does the Hardware use?
The Hardware is built around the RP2350_80QFN, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.
How big is the Hardware PCB?
The Hardware measures 205.3 × 78 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6062 mm thick.
How many components are on the Hardware?
172 components, from 77 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 Hardware design files?
From the seedhammer/hardware 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 Hardware design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its Unlicense license, which seedhammer chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the Hardware 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.
