Cenere-Mouse: common questions
What microcontroller does the Cenere-Mouse use?
The Cenere-Mouse is built around the NRF52840-QIAA-R, from the Nordic nRF family.
How big is the Cenere-Mouse PCB?
The Cenere-Mouse measures 47.8 × 89 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6062 mm thick.
How many components are on the Cenere-Mouse?
104 components, from 57 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 Cenere-Mouse design files?
From the willwaush/Cenere-Mouse 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 Cenere-Mouse design in my own project?
It is published under CC-BY-NC-4.0, which limits how it may be reused; read the license before building on it.
Can I test firmware for the Cenere-Mouse 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.
