Caligula: common questions
What microcontroller does the Caligula use?
The Caligula is built around the ESP32-S3-WROOM-1, from the ESP32 family.
How big is the Caligula PCB?
The Caligula measures 84.6 × 108.3 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Caligula?
98 components, from 50 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 Caligula design files?
From the ahsanu123/caligula repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Caligula design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with ahsanu123. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the Caligula 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.
