ESC-Hardware: common questions

What microcontroller does the ESC-Hardware use?

The ESC-Hardware is built around the STM32F030K6Tx, from the STM32 family.

How big is the ESC-Hardware PCB?

The ESC-Hardware measures 50 × 35 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the ESC-Hardware?

64 components, from 16 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the ESC-Hardware design files?

From the cveliz/ESC-Hardware repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the ESC-Hardware design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the ESC-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.
