Raft21: common questions

What microcontroller does the Raft21 use?

The Raft21 is built around the Pico, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the Raft21 PCB?

The Raft21 measures 194.8 × 99.8 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Raft21?

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

Where can I download the Raft21 design files?

From the skksn1230/raft21 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Raft21 design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its GPL-3.0 license, which skksn1230 chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Raft21 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.
