From the project
A repository to store all the software files used for the BT Insulin Pump
This Git repository represents the final result of multiple design iterations of a low-cost insulin pump I have designed as part of my studies in medical device development. The repository contains files for hardware, both electrical and mechanical, and firmware. I have also included a BOM to make ordering of components easier if anyone wishes to replicate this design. The device has been tested in humans, in a small clinical trial, and a write-up of the results was published here.

Low-Cost-Insulin-Pump-V2.1: common questions
What microcontroller does the Low-Cost-Insulin-Pump-V2.1 use?
The Low-Cost-Insulin-Pump-V2.1 is built around the ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N16R2, from the ESP32 family.
How big is the Low-Cost-Insulin-Pump-V2.1 PCB?
The Low-Cost-Insulin-Pump-V2.1 measures 32 × 45 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 4.69 mm thick.
How many components are on the Low-Cost-Insulin-Pump-V2.1?
82 components, from 46 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 Low-Cost-Insulin-Pump-V2.1 design files?
From the mattgp32/Low-Cost-Insulin-Pump-V2.1 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 Low-Cost-Insulin-Pump-V2.1 design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with mattgp32. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the Low-Cost-Insulin-Pump-V2.1 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.
