InterfaceBoard: common questions

What microcontroller does the InterfaceBoard use?

The InterfaceBoard is built around the ATMEGA32U4, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the InterfaceBoard PCB?

The InterfaceBoard measures 6.4 × 6.4 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the InterfaceBoard?

36 components, from 19 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the InterfaceBoard design files?

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

Can I use the InterfaceBoard design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its Unlicense license, which TeamMeanMachine chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the InterfaceBoard 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.
