CH552: common questions

What microcontroller does the CH552 use?

The CH552 is built around the CH552G, from the WCH CH32/CH55x family.

How big is the CH552 PCB?

The CH552 measures 40.6 × 27.9 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the CH552?

19 components, from 13 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the CH552 design files?

From the nicola-strappazzon/CH552 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the CH552 design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its LGPL-2.1 license, which nicola-strappazzon chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the CH552 without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug WCH CH32/CH55x firmware against it before you order a PCB.
