KRUPS-RocketStation: common questions

What microcontroller does the KRUPS-RocketStation use?

The KRUPS-RocketStation is built around the TPS2117, from the Raspberry Pi family.

How big is the KRUPS-RocketStation PCB?

The KRUPS-RocketStation measures 87.6 × 56 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the KRUPS-RocketStation?

34 components, from 26 distinct parts, with part numbers taken from the project's own BOM. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the KRUPS-RocketStation design files?

From the krups/RockSatX-GHOST-Hardware repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the KRUPS-RocketStation design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the KRUPS-RocketStation without the hardware?

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