Deck65: common questions

What microcontroller does the Deck65 use?

The Deck65 is built around the ESP-01-v2, from the ESP8266 family.

How big is the Deck65 PCB?

The Deck65 measures 254 × 80 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Deck65?

183 components, from 58 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Deck65 design files?

From the and3rson/deck65 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Deck65 design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its GPL-3.0 license, which and3rson chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Deck65 without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug ESP8266 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
