About the Nylok-Heater PCB
Nylok-Heater is an open source STM32 PCB design by 3nboyd, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 38 × 100 mm, with 64 components from 64 distinct parts.
Its main chip is the STM32G030F6P6, from the STM32 family. Other key parts include the INA180A2IDBVR, MP8771GQ-Z, AP7381-33Y-13 and MCP4725A0T-E/CH. By type, the board carries 25 resistors, 23 capacitors, 5 ICs, 4 connectors, 3 transistors and 2 switches.
From the project
KiCad concept reconstruction and engineering study for a two-mode handheld induction-heater controller.
A KiCad reconstruction of a two-mode handheld induction-heater controller concept, prepared for the Notre Dame / Marmon / Nylok Innovate-a-thon.
The concept uses two protected 18650 cells in series to power a controller board that:
- measures input current; - provides regulated 5 V and 3.3 V rails; - controls a switched DC output for an external ZVS induction driver; - exposes an I2C display connector; and - provides an SWD programming header for the STM32 controller.

Nylok-Heater: common questions
What microcontroller does the Nylok-Heater use?
The Nylok-Heater is built around the STM32G030F6P6, from the STM32 family.
How big is the Nylok-Heater PCB?
The Nylok-Heater measures 38 × 100 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Nylok-Heater?
64 components, from 64 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 Nylok-Heater design files?
From the 3nboyd/Nylok-Heater repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Nylok-Heater design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with 3nboyd. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the Nylok-Heater without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug STM32 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
