MHCI-DMX: common questions
What microcontroller does the MHCI-DMX use?
The MHCI-DMX is built around the ESP-32-S3-Tiny - PTH, from the ESP32 family.
How big is the MHCI-DMX PCB?
The MHCI-DMX measures 79 × 90 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the MHCI-DMX?
75 components, from 38 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the MHCI-DMX design files?
From the About-Time-Technologies/MHCI repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the MHCI-DMX design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with About-Time-Technologies. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the MHCI-DMX without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug ESP32 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
