Kicad: common questions

What microcontroller does the Kicad use?

The Kicad is built around the ESP32-WROOM-32D, from the ESP32 family.

How many components are on the Kicad?

70 components, from 48 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Kicad design files?

From the maximiliano280311/Kicad repository on GitHub, which has the schematic and a netlist; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Kicad design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with maximiliano280311. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the Kicad 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.
