Gear80-M: common questions
What microcontroller does the Gear80-M use?
The Gear80-M is built around the STM32F072C8Tx, from the STM32 family.
How big is the Gear80-M PCB?
The Gear80-M measures 100.8 × 21.8 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.2 mm thick.
How many components are on the Gear80-M?
181 components, from 11 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the Gear80-M design files?
From the cosmosalad/GearSeries repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Gear80-M design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with cosmosalad. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the Gear80-M without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug STM32 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
