Soldering station: common questions
What microcontroller does the Soldering station use?
The Soldering station is built around the STM32L011F4Px, from the STM32 family.
How big is the Soldering station PCB?
The Soldering station measures 70 × 50 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Soldering station?
30 components, from 22 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 Soldering station design files?
From the microbug/soldering-station repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Soldering station design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which microbug chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the Soldering station without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug STM32 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
