AuroraF4: common questions

What microcontroller does the AuroraF4 use?

The AuroraF4 is built around the STM32F407VGTx, from the STM32 family.

How big is the AuroraF4 PCB?

The AuroraF4 measures 85.1 × 50.2 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the AuroraF4?

65 components, from 37 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the AuroraF4 design files?

From the aleko-khomasuridze/AuroraF4 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the AuroraF4 design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with aleko-khomasuridze. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the AuroraF4 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.
