CH32V203-devboard: common questions

What microcontroller does the CH32V203-devboard use?

The CH32V203-devboard is built around the CUSTOM_QFN-48-1EP_7x7mm_P0.5mm_EP5.3x5.3mm, from the RISC-V family.

How big is the CH32V203-devboard PCB?

The CH32V203-devboard measures 28.7 × 58.7 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the CH32V203-devboard?

110 components, from 14 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 CH32V203-devboard design files?

From the silkscreen-studio/CH32V203-devboard 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 CH32V203-devboard design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which silkscreen-studio chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the CH32V203-devboard without the hardware?

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