MicroBit328: common questions
What microcontroller does the MicroBit328 use?
The MicroBit328 is built around the Atmega328p_MMHR, from the AVR/Arduino family.
How big is the MicroBit328 PCB?
The MicroBit328 measures 17.7 × 12.1 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the MicroBit328?
23 components, from 14 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the MicroBit328 design files?
From the StuckAtPrototype/MicroBit328 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the MicroBit328 design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with StuckAtPrototype. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the MicroBit328 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.
