Easysdr: common questions
What microcontroller does the Easysdr use?
The Easysdr is built around the ESP32-DEVKIT, from the ESP32 family.
How big is the Easysdr PCB?
The Easysdr measures 67.3 × 74.9 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Easysdr?
32 components, from 17 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the Easysdr design files?
From the michalin/easysdr repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Easysdr design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its GPL-3.0 license, which michalin chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the Easysdr 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.
