Brickpico: common questions

What microcontroller does the Brickpico use?

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

How big is the Brickpico PCB?

The Brickpico measures 86 × 69.5 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Brickpico?

113 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 Brickpico design files?

From the tjko/brickpico 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 Brickpico design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its GPL-3.0 license, which tjko chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Brickpico 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.
