About the IdeFIX PCB

IdeFIX is an open source STM32 PCB design by GAULAvionique, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 100 × 60 mm, with 83 components from 41 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the STM32F103RET6, from the STM32 family. Other key parts include the NCV5501DT33RKG, NJM2882F05-TE1, MLX90393SLW-ABA-011-RE and TXS0102DCUR. By type, the board carries 5 ICs, 5 switches, 4 connectors, 3 diodes, 2 transistors and 1 crystal.

From the project

Repo pour le KiCad et Firmware du Beacon

IdeFIX est une balise de repérage embarquée développée par le GAUL afin de faciliter la récupération et le suivi d’équipements après mission. Le système agit comme une plateforme compacte de télémétrie et de localisation capable de transmettre des informations essentielles en temps réel.

Léger et robuste Facilement intégrable dans une charge utile ou une fusée Optimisé pour une faible consommation énergétique Modulable selon les besoins de mission

IdeFIX: common questions

What microcontroller does the IdeFIX use?

The IdeFIX is built around the STM32F103RET6, from the STM32 family.

How big is the IdeFIX PCB?

The IdeFIX measures 100 × 60 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.62 mm thick.

How many components are on the IdeFIX?

83 components, from 41 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 IdeFIX design files?

From the GAULAvionique/IdeFIX 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 IdeFIX design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the IdeFIX 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.
