From the project

Minuet upgrades your MAXXAIR Maxxfan with a brushless DC motor, home automation features, and accessories.

Minuet upgrades your MAXXAIR Maxxfan with a brushless DC motor, home automation features, and accessories.

Improve your quality of life in your campervan, RV, trailer, or truck!

Replace your fan's original motor with a quieter brushless motor. No more cleaning squeaky motor brushes! Install Minuet with simple hand tools. You can revert back to the original equipment later if you want. Connect your fan to your home automation system if you have one. Works with your original infrared remote control and wired wall controls too. Install the light accessory to add a ring of lights to your fan…

Minuet Fan Controller: common questions

What microcontroller does the Minuet Fan Controller use?

The Minuet Fan Controller is built around the ESP32-C6-MINI-1/U, from the ESP32 family.

How big is the Minuet Fan Controller PCB?

The Minuet Fan Controller measures 79 × 79 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6062 mm thick.

How many components are on the Minuet Fan Controller?

87 components, from 39 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Minuet Fan Controller design files?

From the brown-studios/minuet repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Minuet Fan Controller design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which brown-studios chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Minuet Fan Controller 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.
