OTlight: common questions

What microcontroller does the OTlight use?

The OTlight is built around the ESP32, from the ESP32 family.

How big is the OTlight PCB?

The OTlight measures 90 × 55 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the OTlight?

60 components, from 30 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the OTlight design files?

From the opeRaptor/OTlite repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the OTlight design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with opeRaptor. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the OTlight 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.
