Esc-1s frame: common questions

What microcontroller does the Esc-1s frame use?

The Esc-1s frame is built around the EFM8BB51F2G-A-QFN20, from the Silicon Labs family.

How big is the Esc-1s frame PCB?

The Esc-1s frame measures 99.6 × 99.6 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Esc-1s frame?

95 components, from 16 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Esc-1s frame design files?

From the kokjo/esc-1s-frame repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Esc-1s frame design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the Esc-1s frame without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug Silicon Labs firmware against it before you order a PCB.
