About the Network player PCB

Network player is an open source ESP32 PCB design by naguirre, published on GitHub under the MIT license. It is a 4-layer board measuring 30.1 × 66.6 mm, with 72 components from 27 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the ESP32-C3-MINI-1, from the ESP32 family. Other key parts include the F1C100s, W25N01GVZEIG and EA3036. By type, the board carries 29 capacitors, 26 resistors, 4 ICs, 3 transistors, 3 switches and 3 inductors.

It belongs with the iot & wireless and audio designs in this gallery.

From the project

The Manufacture du Son network player is a custom board built around an Allwinner f1c200s SoC running Linux and an ESP32-C3 companion chip providing Wi-Fi and BLE. Audio is routed out over SPDIF. This site documents how to build the firmware, flash it onto a board, and develop on top of it.

KiCad sources and fabrication outputs for a small network audio player board built around an Allwinner F1C200s SoC, an ESP32-C3 for Wi-Fi, NAND flash storage, an EA3036 power management IC, and an audio DAC daughter board.

The repository contains two KiCad projects: - network_player/ — the main board - dac/ — the audio DAC daughter board

Network player: common questions

What microcontroller does the Network player use?

The Network player is built around the ESP32-C3-MINI-1, from the ESP32 family.

How big is the Network player PCB?

The Network player measures 30.1 × 66.6 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 7.78 mm thick.

How many components are on the Network player?

72 components, from 27 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Network player design files?

From the naguirre/mds-builder repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Network player design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which naguirre chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Network player 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.
