Capacitor alarm clock: common questions
What microcontroller does the Capacitor alarm clock use?
The Capacitor alarm clock is built around the ESP32-C3-MINI-1-N4, from the ESP32 family.
How big is the Capacitor alarm clock PCB?
The Capacitor alarm clock measures 62.3 × 64.3 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Capacitor alarm clock?
81 components, from 30 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 Capacitor alarm clock design files?
From the ArcaEge/capacitor-alarm-clock 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 Capacitor alarm clock design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which ArcaEge chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the Capacitor alarm clock 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.
