Nestbox v2: common questions

What microcontroller does the Nestbox v2 use?

The Nestbox v2 is built around the ESP-12S, from the ESP8266 family.

How big is the Nestbox v2 PCB?

The Nestbox v2 measures 85 × 60 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Nestbox v2?

113 components, from 67 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 Nestbox v2 design files?

From the Octanis3/Octanis3-Electronics repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Nestbox v2 design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which Octanis3 chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Nestbox v2 without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug ESP8266 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
