Bit32F042F6Px: common questions
What microcontroller does the Bit32F042F6Px use?
The Bit32F042F6Px is built around the STM32F042F6PX, from the STM32 family.
How big is the Bit32F042F6Px PCB?
The Bit32F042F6Px measures 27 × 18.7 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Bit32F042F6Px?
19 components, from 13 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 Bit32F042F6Px design files?
From the FaizeenHoque/Bit32F042F6Px 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 Bit32F042F6Px design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its CERN-OHL-S-2.0 license, which FaizeenHoque chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the Bit32F042F6Px 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.
