Preamp Board: common questions

What microcontroller does the Preamp Board use?

The Preamp Board is built around the ESP32-C6-WROOM-1-N4, from the ESP32 family.

How big is the Preamp Board?

The Preamp Board measures 154.4 × 73.8 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Preamp Board?

86 components, from 42 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 Preamp Board design files?

From the colektamu/ECEN404-2026SP-TIAmplifier repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Preamp Board design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the Preamp Board 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.
