Mdbt50q breakout: common questions

What microcontroller does the Mdbt50q breakout use?

The Mdbt50q breakout is built around the MDBT50Q, from the Nordic nRF family.

How big is the Mdbt50q breakout?

The Mdbt50q breakout measures 30 × 67 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Mdbt50q breakout?

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

Where can I download the Mdbt50q breakout design files?

From the soburi/mdbt50q-breakout repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Mdbt50q breakout design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the Mdbt50q breakout without the hardware?

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