Asylum: common questions

What microcontroller does the Asylum use?

The Asylum is built around the WeMos_D1_mini, from the ESP8266 family.

How big is the Asylum PCB?

The Asylum measures 37 × 41 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Asylum?

6 components, from 5 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 Asylum design files?

From the hackclub/asylum 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 Asylum design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which hackclub chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Asylum 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.
