HackPad-V4: common questions
What microcontroller does the HackPad-V4 use?
The HackPad-V4 is built around the XIAO-RP2040-DIP, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.
How big is the HackPad-V4 PCB?
The HackPad-V4 measures 60 × 81.6 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the HackPad-V4?
29 components, from 5 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the HackPad-V4 design files?
From the sudo-apt-install-tap/HackPad-V4 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the HackPad-V4 design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its GPL-3.0 license, which sudo-apt-install-tap chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the HackPad-V4 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.
