Esp32-iot-4layer: common questions
What microcontroller does the Esp32-iot-4layer use?
The Esp32-iot-4layer is built around the ESP32-C3-WROOM-02, from the ESP32 family.
How big is the Esp32-iot-4layer PCB?
The Esp32-iot-4layer measures 88.2 × 56.4 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Esp32-iot-4layer?
79 components, from 36 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the Esp32-iot-4layer design files?
From the ODARI-CHARLES1/esp32-iot-4layer-pcb 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-iot-4layer design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with ODARI-CHARLES1. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the Esp32-iot-4layer 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.
