Cognition hack: common questions

What microcontroller does the Cognition hack use?

The Cognition hack is built around the ESP32-WROOM-32, from the ESP32 family.

How big is the Cognition hack PCB?

The Cognition hack measures 100 × 80 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Cognition hack?

5 components, from 4 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Cognition hack design files?

From the PRONGS-CHIRAG/cognition-hack repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Cognition hack design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the Cognition hack 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.
