ESP-Sensors: common questions

What microcontroller does the ESP-Sensors use?

The ESP-Sensors is built around the ESP-12E, from the ESP8266 family.

How big is the ESP-Sensors PCB?

The ESP-Sensors measures 58.4 × 54 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the ESP-Sensors?

17 components, from 13 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the ESP-Sensors design files?

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

Can I use the ESP-Sensors design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the ESP-Sensors 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.
