PTDriver: common questions

What microcontroller does the PTDriver use?

The PTDriver is built around the ATmega328P, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the PTDriver PCB?

The PTDriver measures 100 × 50 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the PTDriver?

61 components, from 26 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the PTDriver design files?

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

Can I use the PTDriver design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which wallaceowen chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the PTDriver 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.
