About the Grow light PCB

Grow light is an open source STM32 PCB design by GeoffreyKassis, published on GitHub. It is a 4-layer board measuring 50 × 50 mm, with 69 components from 32 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the STM8S003F3P6TR, from the STM32 family. Other key parts include the HUSB238_XXXDD, USBLC6-2SC6, TPS61165DRV and HT7533. By type, the board carries 18 capacitors, 18 resistors, 8 ICs, 8 diodes, 4 connectors and 4 inductors.

From the project

USB-C PD grow light in two assemblies: an FR-4 controller (MAINBOARD/) and a one-layer aluminum LED panel (LEDBOARD/), joined by an 8-wire 2×4 IDC harness. Schematic connectivity and the as-drawn BOM come from KiCad (MAINBOARD/production/, LEDBOARD/production/). This file records

USB-C PD grow light in two assemblies: an FR-4 controller (MAINBOARD/) and a one-layer aluminum LED panel (LEDBOARD/), joined by an 8-wire 2×4 IDC harness. Schematic connectivity and the as-drawn BOM come from KiCad (MAINBOARD/production/, LEDBOARD/production/). This file records why parts and numbers are what they are.

USB-C is the only power inlet. An HUSB238 PD sink negotiates the contract over I2C. An STM8S003F3 requests 9 V or 12 V (never 20 V) and PWM-dims four TPS61165 boost channels from PC6. Each channel drives one isolated LED string: four 4000 K whites plus one 660 nm red in…

Grow light: common questions

What microcontroller does the Grow light use?

The Grow light is built around the STM8S003F3P6TR, from the STM32 family.

How big is the Grow light PCB?

The Grow light measures 50 × 50 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Grow light?

69 components, from 32 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 Grow light design files?

From the GeoffreyKassis/led_grow_light 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 Grow light design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the Grow light 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.
