ESP8266ControllerCircuit: common questions
What microcontroller does the ESP8266ControllerCircuit use?
The ESP8266ControllerCircuit is built around the WeMos_mini, from the ESP8266 family.
How big is the ESP8266ControllerCircuit PCB?
The ESP8266ControllerCircuit measures 75 × 30 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the ESP8266ControllerCircuit?
20 components, from 16 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 ESP8266ControllerCircuit design files?
From the Arkariusz/bms repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the ESP8266ControllerCircuit 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 ESP8266ControllerCircuit 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.
