Smart-Meter: common questions
What microcontroller does the Smart-Meter use?
The Smart-Meter is built around the ESP32-S3, from the ESP32 family.
How big is the Smart-Meter PCB?
The Smart-Meter measures 78 × 90 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Smart-Meter?
129 components, from 35 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the Smart-Meter design files?
From the hupfer21/Smart-Meter repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Smart-Meter design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with hupfer21. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the Smart-Meter 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.
