StringsVR-SheepyHat: common questions

What microcontroller does the StringsVR-SheepyHat use?

The StringsVR-SheepyHat is built around the nRF24L01, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the StringsVR-SheepyHat PCB?

The StringsVR-SheepyHat measures 145 × 83.5 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the StringsVR-SheepyHat?

17 components, from 11 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the StringsVR-SheepyHat design files?

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

Can I use the StringsVR-SheepyHat design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the StringsVR-SheepyHat 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.
