StartrackerOrion-Hardware: common questions
What microcontroller does the StartrackerOrion-Hardware use?
The StartrackerOrion-Hardware is built around the ESP32-S3-WROOM-1, from the ESP32 family.
How big is the StartrackerOrion-Hardware PCB?
The StartrackerOrion-Hardware measures 86.1 × 71.9 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.66 mm thick.
How many components are on the StartrackerOrion-Hardware?
96 components, from 41 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 StartrackerOrion-Hardware design files?
From the NBER08/StartrackerOrion-Hardware 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 StartrackerOrion-Hardware design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which NBER08 chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the StartrackerOrion-Hardware 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.
