12vhpwr standard module: common questions

What microcontroller does the 12vhpwr standard module use?

The 12vhpwr standard module is built around the ESP32-S3-MINI-1-N4R2, from the ESP32 family.

How big is the 12vhpwr standard module?

The 12vhpwr standard module measures 58 × 80 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.695 mm thick.

How many components are on the 12vhpwr standard module?

90 components, from 35 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 12vhpwr standard module design files?

From the nathanfraske/CEC-Platform repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the 12vhpwr standard module design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its Apache-2.0 license, which nathanfraske chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the 12vhpwr standard module 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.
