Media board: common questions

What microcontroller does the Media board use?

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

How big is the Media board?

The Media board measures 72 × 66 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Media board?

9 components, from 8 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Media board design files?

From the TheBadZhang/nes_shell repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Media board design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the Media board 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.
