Moonshot: common questions
What microcontroller does the Moonshot use?
The Moonshot is built around the Arduino_Nano_v2.x, from the AVR/Arduino family.
How big is the Moonshot PCB?
The Moonshot measures 109.2 × 66.3 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Moonshot?
30 components, from 17 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 Moonshot design files?
From the sparkerBCI/FYP repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Moonshot design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with sparkerBCI. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the Moonshot 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.
