Panel: common questions
What microcontroller does the Panel use?
The Panel is built around the STM32G030K8TX, from the STM32 family.
How big is the Panel PCB?
The Panel measures 176 × 161 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Panel?
25 components, from 13 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 Panel design files?
From the afonsus1997/Bongo-Cat-Fidget-Toy repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Panel design in my own project?
It is published under CC-BY-NC-4.0, which limits how it may be reused; read the license before building on it.
Can I test firmware for the Panel 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.
