-
avr-firmware/ contains firmware which is running on Atmega 328p microcontroller. It requires avr-gcc, avr-binutils and scons. Sample usage:
scons uploadFlashes the microcontroller (assumes usbasp programmer connected).
-
linux_software/ folder contains userspace driver which passes keypresses from serial port to uinput. Requires python2.7, pyserial and evdev Sample usage:
bash virtualenv .env source .env/bin/activate pip install -r requirements.txt python driver.py /dev/ttyAMA0Runs the input driver which expects that microcontroller is connected to /dev/ttyAMA0 (serial port on RasPi).
-
hardware/ contains schematics and PCB layout drawn in KiCad.

Questions
How big is the Carpc PCB?
It measures 105.4 × 67.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Carpc use?
51 parts, built around the ATMEGA328-PU, MCP2551-I/P, MCP2515-I and BC547. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Carpc KiCad files?
From the festlv/carpc repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/carpc.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Carpc design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask festlv before reusing the design.
