PowerMeterLC: common questions
What microcontroller does the PowerMeterLC use?
The PowerMeterLC is built around the ESP32-C3-WROOM-02, from the ESP32 family.
How big is the PowerMeterLC PCB?
The PowerMeterLC measures 30 × 50 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the PowerMeterLC?
30 components, from 11 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 PowerMeterLC design files?
From the dianventer/OpenAmpMeter 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 PowerMeterLC design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with dianventer. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the PowerMeterLC 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.
