From the project
Redesigned PCB for simultaneous Peltier control and surface resistance measurement
More details about the device can be understood from the schematic drawing here. The notes are in Russian.
The controller for the complex is STM32L432KC Nucleo.
In this case are studing the I - V characteristic of an element depending on the temperature of the sample. It is important to understand the I – V characteristic near the metal-insulator phase transition (MIT), which is about 68 degrees Celsius. You must understand that the ultimate goal is to stabilize the temperature to a specific value. More about the TEC control [2]

TEC2: common questions
What microcontroller does the TEC2 use?
The TEC2 is built around the Arduino_Nano_v3.x, from the AVR/Arduino family.
How big is the TEC2 PCB?
The TEC2 measures 100 × 100 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the TEC2?
108 components, from 49 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the TEC2 design files?
From the Oerdna/V2_TEC repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the TEC2 design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its AGPL-3.0 license, which Oerdna chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the TEC2 without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug AVR/Arduino firmware against it before you order a PCB.
