About the ProPico PCB

ProPico is an open source RP2040/RP2350 PCB design by SunnyYoshimitsu, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 40 × 40 mm, with 57 components from 31 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the RP2040, from the RP2040/RP2350 family. Other key parts include the MPU-9250, W25Q16JVUXIQ, AMS1117-3.3, LM4040DBZ-3 and MS5611-01BA. By type, the board carries 18 capacitors, 18 resistors, 9 connectors, 6 ICs, 2 switches and 2 diodes.

It belongs with the rf & radio designs in this gallery.

From the project

Here will be the repository for an "extremely reconfigurable satellite" aimed toward at competing in NASA Minds and hopefully assist Artemis in its missions.

ProPico: common questions

What microcontroller does the ProPico use?

The ProPico is built around the RP2040, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the ProPico PCB?

The ProPico measures 40 × 40 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1 mm thick.

How many components are on the ProPico?

57 components, from 31 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 ProPico design files?

From the SunnyYoshimitsu/Reconfigurable-Space-Compute-Cluster repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the ProPico design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the ProPico 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.
