About the Esp32-cantroller PCB
Esp32-cantroller is an open source ESP32 PCB design by neggles, published on GitHub under the CC-BY-SA-4.0 license. It is a board measuring 65 × 37.5 mm, with 28 components from 23 distinct parts.
Its main chip is the ESP32-S2-WROVER(4MB), from the ESP32 family. Other key parts include the MAX3051ESA+T and XC6220B331MR. By type, the board carries 9 capacitors, 5 switches, 3 ICs, 3 connectors, 3 resistors and 2 diodes.
From the project
ESP32-S2-WROVER/WROOM based CANBUS controller thingy.
This is a little board I whipped up to connect to my Eltek Flatpack2 Breakout Board but it should be useful as a general CANBUS control board with wide voltage input.
Most of the parts on the board are outfitted with their LCSC code for KiKit's JLCPCB SMT fab autogeneration.
I'm using an ESP32-S2-WROOM / ESP32-S2-WROVER module, abusing the on-board USB DFU to avoid having a USB-UART IC.

Esp32-cantroller: common questions
What microcontroller does the Esp32-cantroller use?
The Esp32-cantroller is built around the ESP32-S2-WROVER(4MB), from the ESP32 family.
How big is the Esp32-cantroller PCB?
The Esp32-cantroller measures 65 × 37.5 mm and is 1.6002 mm thick.
How many components are on the Esp32-cantroller?
28 components, from 23 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the Esp32-cantroller design files?
From the neggles/esp32-cantroller repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Esp32-cantroller design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its CC-BY-SA-4.0 license, which neggles chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the Esp32-cantroller 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.
