About the Satellite SoM PCB

Satellite SoM is an open source ESP32 PCB design by inoa-io, published on GitHub under the CERN-OHL-P-2.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 56 × 30.4 mm, with 17 components from 9 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the ESP32-WROVER-IE-16MB, from the ESP32 family. Other key parts include the ATECC608A-SSHDA and DS3231MZ. By type, the board carries 5 capacitors, 5 resistors, 3 ICs, 3 connectors and 1 battery holder.

It belongs with the rf & radio and iot & wireless designs in this gallery.

Satellite Hardware Project and Documentation

The Inoa Satellite is a lightweight and secure gateway for your fuse box or industrial environment.

Please see our Project Pages for details.

There is a huge amount of IoT gateways out there, but none of these fulfill completely all of our design goals:

Usage in a rough industrial environment Hardware driven security (HSM) Inexpensive hardware to be able to finance a huge fleet of devices Low energy consumption Fuse box casing (DIN rail) Small (2 FE / 36 mm) to allow mounting in existing fuse boxes Extendable design to be future proof Modular design to adapt hardware to use cases and keep…

Satellite SoM: common questions

What microcontroller does the Satellite SoM use?

The Satellite SoM is built around the ESP32-WROVER-IE-16MB, from the ESP32 family.

How big is the Satellite SoM PCB?

The Satellite SoM measures 56 × 30.4 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Satellite SoM?

17 components, from 9 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Satellite SoM design files?

From the inoa-io/satellite repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Satellite SoM design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its CERN-OHL-P-2.0 license, which inoa-io chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Satellite SoM 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.
