About the EWB-EPA-Rainworks PCB

EWB-EPA-Rainworks is an open source ESP8266 PCB design by IceyPlazza, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 111.4 × 40.9 mm, with 19 components from 17 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the ESP8266 Thing, from the ESP8266 family. Other key parts include the MCP3008, S4_FR, S3_T, S2_C and S1_SM. By type, the board carries 6 ICs, 4 resistors, 3 capacitors and 2 connectors.

It belongs with the sensors designs in this gallery.

From the project

26-27 EWB EPA Rainworks project; We're putting a sensor box in the ground!

- Please browse through the key presentations folder to familiarize yourself with the general goal of Rainworks! - Having some background in Java or C++ would assist you immensely if you're joining the CS Team. - main branch is our last working version, mainrevampWIP branch is our experimental/work-in-progress branch - Please browse through the .ino files in both our main branch and WIP branch; documentation should help make understanding the code intuitive

EWB-EPA-Rainworks: common questions

What microcontroller does the EWB-EPA-Rainworks use?

The EWB-EPA-Rainworks is built around the ESP8266 Thing, from the ESP8266 family.

How big is the EWB-EPA-Rainworks PCB?

The EWB-EPA-Rainworks measures 111.4 × 40.9 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the EWB-EPA-Rainworks?

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

Where can I download the EWB-EPA-Rainworks design files?

From the IceyPlazza/EWB-EPA-Rainworks repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the EWB-EPA-Rainworks design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the EWB-EPA-Rainworks 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.
