UnSplit: common questions

What microcontroller does the UnSplit use?

The UnSplit is built around the ATmega32U4-AU, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the UnSplit PCB?

The UnSplit measures 323.9 × 95.1 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the UnSplit?

104 components, from 55 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the UnSplit design files?

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

Can I use the UnSplit design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its GPL-2.0 license, which swiftrax chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the UnSplit 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.
