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.
