Edgedriver: common questions

What microcontroller does the Edgedriver use?

The Edgedriver is built around the ESP32-WROVER, from the ESP32 family.

How big is the Edgedriver PCB?

The Edgedriver measures 82.8 × 70.7 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Edgedriver?

26 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 Edgedriver design files?

From the brainsmoke/aluball repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Edgedriver design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the Edgedriver 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.
