Ammeter: common questions

What microcontroller does the Ammeter use?

The Ammeter is built around the PTN78000W_EUS-5, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the Ammeter PCB?

The Ammeter measures 25 × 15 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Ammeter?

45 components, from 40 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 Ammeter design files?

From the Tert2/KiCAD 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 Ammeter design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with Tert2. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the Ammeter 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.
