Automatic-Screw-Feeder-Dispenser: common questions

What microcontroller does the Automatic-Screw-Feeder-Dispenser use?

The Automatic-Screw-Feeder-Dispenser is built around the ESP32-S3-DEV-KIT-N8R8, from the ESP32 family.

How big is the Automatic-Screw-Feeder-Dispenser PCB?

The Automatic-Screw-Feeder-Dispenser measures 120.1 × 64 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Automatic-Screw-Feeder-Dispenser?

31 components, from 17 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Automatic-Screw-Feeder-Dispenser design files?

From the Hennerz-07/Automatic-Screw-Feeder-Dispenser repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Automatic-Screw-Feeder-Dispenser design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with Hennerz-07. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the Automatic-Screw-Feeder-Dispenser 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.
