VESC6 OPEN HARDWARE: common questions
What microcontroller does the VESC6 OPEN HARDWARE use?
The VESC6 OPEN HARDWARE is built around the C15742, from the STM32 family.
How big is the VESC6 OPEN HARDWARE PCB?
The VESC6 OPEN HARDWARE measures 110 × 45 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the VESC6 OPEN HARDWARE?
118 components, from 47 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 VESC6 OPEN HARDWARE design files?
From the craigg96/VESC6_OPEN_HARDWARE 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 VESC6 OPEN HARDWARE design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which craigg96 chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the VESC6 OPEN HARDWARE 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.
