Reference Design of Arduino Nano 3.0
Follow article
The reference design of Arduino NANO 3.0 (696-1667) was converted into DesignSpark PCB format and you may download the project’s files and BOM list in the Download section at the bottom.
The Arduino Nano is a small, complete, and breadboard-friendly board based on the ATmega328. It has similar functionality to the Arduino Duemilanove, but in a DIP module package. It lacks only a DC power jack, and works with a Mini-B USB cable instead of a standard one.
- ATmega328 microcontroller with pre-programmed bootloader
- Input Voltage (recommended): +7 to +12V
- Input Voltage (limits): +6 to +20V
- 32KB Flash Memory (of which 2KB used by bootloader)
- 2KB SRAM
- 1KB EEPROM
- Clock Speed: 16MHz

What is DesignSpark PCB?
DesignSpark PCB is an award-winning software package for schematic capture and PCB layout, available for FREE from RS Components. Our software is easy to learn and use yet surprisingly powerful. DesignSpark PCB is now widely adopted in the industry as a standard format for design file sharing and collaboration. This is especially useful in the prototyping phase where most of the innovation takes place. Not yet a DesignSpark PCB user?

Can someone please send a link for the 16MHz quarz

Does not open with version 9

@albuckley I just checked and it does work in V9, are you removing the preamble the download files have attached to the filename? The suggested method is to download the files, then create a project folder and move the files to this folder. Rename the files by deleting everything on the left up to the underscore. Unfortunately this is due to the way the database and website functions and has to be done for all reference designs.

Thank you for publishing this.. When I checked, the distance between two opposite pins such as d12 and d13 should be 15.24 and when I opened the PCB it shows 15.1? It might create problems when inserting a shield or into a breadboard?

@arundale I have referred this to the team to review the PCB. Thank you for your feedback.

Which software was used to design the PCB file

@PrideGandah V8 I would presume based on the dates of other comments posted. Are you having issues opening the PCB file?

22pf capacitors are connected to 5v or ground?

@Uzair1 Here is a link to an app note on hardware design for AVR microcontrollers, including details on the oscillator circuit and crystal / resonator selection: https://www.microchip.com/wwwAppNotes/AppNotes.aspx?appnote=en591472

@Uzair1 I don't see any discrete 22pf capacitors in the design. Based on the value, I presuming you are asking about load capacitors for the oscillator circuit. They usually go to ground. In this design, a ceramic resonator is being used with the oscillator, and this particular resonator (CSTCE16M0V53A-R0) has the load capacitors built in, going to ground. -Brad

Hi torontofred, this is because the downloaded files get prefixed with addition text.
e.g. prj file downloaded is in my case
3de52168-b551-11e6-96d7-bc764e08d8ff_Arduino Nano2.prj
Delete all the text just leaving "Arduino Nano2.prj"
repeat for the other files.
Copy the newly named files to a folder and then it opens in any version.

I cannot open the files with DesginSpark 8.0. Any suggestions?
