NoahFC: common questions
What microcontroller does the NoahFC use?
The NoahFC is built around the ATMEGA328, from the AVR/Arduino family.
How big is the NoahFC PCB?
The NoahFC measures 32 × 42 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the NoahFC?
41 components, from 32 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 NoahFC design files?
From the zosko/NoahFC 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 NoahFC design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its GPL-3.0 license, which zosko chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the NoahFC 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.
