From the project
Building custom flight computers
MIDAS MK1 is the fifth generation of the Illinois Space Society's SRAD avionics systems and the first to serve as a full-fledged rocketry altimeter. Combining the functionality of TARS together with the advanced pyrotechnic circuitry seen on many commercial models into a smaller form factor, MIDAS facilitates data collection, telemetry, and execution of inflight events. More than just a single unit, MIDAS is intended for placement on multiple stages of a rocket and can serve as a center of more complex avionics networks such as our onboard live video system.

MIDAS MK1.1: common questions
What microcontroller does the MIDAS MK1.1 use?
The MIDAS MK1.1 is built around the ESP32-S3-WROOM-1U, from the ESP32 family.
How big is the MIDAS MK1.1 PCB?
The MIDAS MK1.1 measures 60 × 100 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

199 components, from 77 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the MIDAS MK1.1 design files?
From the ISSUIUC/ISS-PCB repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the MIDAS MK1.1 design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with ISSUIUC. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the MIDAS MK1.1 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.
