Rustypill: common questions

What microcontroller does the Rustypill use?

The Rustypill is built around the ESP-12F, from the ESP8266 family.

How big is the Rustypill PCB?

The Rustypill measures 70 × 52 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Rustypill?

56 components, from 34 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Rustypill design files?

From the Determinant/rustypill-pcb repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Rustypill design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the Rustypill without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug ESP8266 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
