About the Chronos phantom PCB

Chronos phantom is an open source ESP32 PCB design by jayis1, published on GitHub. It is a 4-layer board measuring 65 × 30 mm, with 26 components from 22 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the ESP32-C3FH4, from the ESP32 family. Other key parts include the STM32H753VIT6, KSZ9131RNI, MV89-10MHz-VC-TCXO, NEO-M9N and TPS63031. By type, the board carries 8 ICs, 4 connectors, 4 diodes, 4 resistors, 3 capacitors and 1 crystal.

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

From the project

Full-cycle hardware designs for security research devices — each device is a subfolder with its own README, schematics, PCB layout, and software stack

This device, firmware, and companion application are designed exclusively for authorized security research, penetration testing with explicit written consent, and red-team operations on systems you own or have explicit permission to assess. Unauthorized manipulation of time-synchronization infrastructure (PTP grandmasters, NTP stratum servers, GNSS-disciplined clocks) in networks you do not own may violate computer-fraud and abuse statutes (e.g., 18 U.S.C. § 1030 CFAA), wiretap statutes (18 U.S.C. § 2511), critical-infrastructure protection laws (e.g., the U.S. Critical Infrastructure…

Chronos phantom: common questions

What microcontroller does the Chronos phantom use?

The Chronos phantom is built around the ESP32-C3FH4, from the ESP32 family.

How big is the Chronos phantom PCB?

The Chronos phantom measures 65 × 30 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Chronos phantom?

26 components, from 22 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Chronos phantom design files?

From the jayis1/hacker-devices repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Chronos phantom design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with jayis1. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the Chronos phantom 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.
