Sha Choc: common questions

What microcontroller does the Sha Choc use?

The Sha Choc is built around the RP2040-Zero, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the Sha Choc PCB?

The Sha Choc measures 252 × 68 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Sha Choc?

101 components, from 3 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Sha Choc design files?

From the skarrmann/sha repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Sha Choc design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which skarrmann chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Sha Choc 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.
