Errata: The design contains some errors that can be addressed in future revisions. The errors do not affect function, but do affect robustness. 1. Add 0.1uF decoupling capacitor to PDM mic (ICS-41350) Vcc. 2. Extend battery holder terminal pads further under solder mask to prevent pad tearout. 3. Consider using FR4 stiffener or…

Shio Rev A: common questions

What microcontroller does the Shio Rev A use?

The Shio Rev A is built around the NRF52840-CKAA-R7, from the Nordic nRF family.

How big is the Shio Rev A PCB?

The Shio Rev A measures 50.2 × 24.2 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Shio Rev A?

67 components, from 42 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 Shio Rev A design files?

From the uw-x/clearbuds-hw repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Shio Rev A design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its CERN-OHL-W-2.0 license, which uw-x chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Shio Rev A without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug Nordic nRF firmware against it before you order a PCB.
