ArduinoMICRACK: common questions

What microcontroller does the ArduinoMICRACK use?

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

How big is the ArduinoMICRACK PCB?

The ArduinoMICRACK measures 19 × 108 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the ArduinoMICRACK?

41 components, from 19 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 ArduinoMICRACK design files?

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

Can I use the ArduinoMICRACK design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the ArduinoMICRACK 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.
