From the project
Rocket Telemetry PCB
This repository contains the PCB files for the main Rocket Telemetry project.
The primary impetus for this project is to develop a student-designed solution to keep the team from losing rockets. This means that these boards must contain and interface with the electronics required to track and analyze a rocket mid-flight and indicate the rocket landing site location to the team back at the launch site to aid in recovery efforts.

Avionics-Telemetry: common questions
What microcontroller does the Avionics-Telemetry use?
The Avionics-Telemetry is built around the STM32L562ZET6, from the STM32 family.
How big is the Avionics-Telemetry PCB?
The Avionics-Telemetry measures 80 × 93.6 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Avionics-Telemetry?
87 components, from 48 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the Avionics-Telemetry design files?
From the MSTRocketDesignTeam/Avionics-Telemetry-PCB repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Avionics-Telemetry design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its GPL-3.0 license, which MSTRocketDesignTeam chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the Avionics-Telemetry 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.
