Tix clock: common questions

What microcontroller does the Tix clock use?

The Tix clock is built around the ESP32-C6-WROOM-1-N8, from the ESP32 family.

How big is the Tix clock PCB?

The Tix clock measures 139 × 40 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Tix clock?

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

Where can I download the Tix clock design files?

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

Can I use the Tix clock design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the Tix clock 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.
