PUFA: common questions

What microcontroller does the PUFA use?

The PUFA is built around the ATmega328P-A, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the PUFA PCB?

The PUFA measures 37 × 37 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the PUFA?

18 components, from 8 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the PUFA design files?

From the sergio-isidoro/PUFA repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the PUFA design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the PUFA 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.
