Droneboard: common questions

What microcontroller does the Droneboard use?

The Droneboard is built around the STM32H743VIH6, from the STM32 family.

How big is the Droneboard PCB?

The Droneboard measures 38 × 38 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Droneboard?

63 components, from 32 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 Droneboard design files?

From the nikola825/drone 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 Droneboard design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which nikola825 chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Droneboard without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug STM32 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
