From the project
STM32 microcontroller PCB design — KiCad project based on Phil's Lab tutorial series
My first STM32 microcontroller PCB design, built following the Phil's Lab STM32 PCB Design tutorial series. This project was a foundational learning experience in professional PCB design workflow — from schematic capture to layout, design rule checking, and Gerber file generation for manufacturing.

STM32-1st-Demo-PCB-Design: common questions
What microcontroller does the STM32-1st-Demo-PCB-Design use?
The STM32-1st-Demo-PCB-Design is built around the STM32F103C8T6, from the STM32 family.
How big is the STM32-1st-Demo-PCB-Design?
The STM32-1st-Demo-PCB-Design measures 41 × 31 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the STM32-1st-Demo-PCB-Design?
28 components, from 16 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the STM32-1st-Demo-PCB-Design design files?
From the ashfaque-ur-rahman/STM32-1st-Demo-PCB-Design repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the STM32-1st-Demo-PCB-Design design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with ashfaque-ur-rahman. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the STM32-1st-Demo-PCB-Design 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.
