Pocket 2.66 E-reader: common questions

What microcontroller does the Pocket 2.66 E-reader use?

The Pocket 2.66 E-reader is built around the ESP32-C3FH4, from the ESP32 family.

How big is the Pocket 2.66 E-reader PCB?

The Pocket 2.66 E-reader measures 45 × 29.2 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.0412 mm thick.

How many components are on the Pocket 2.66 E-reader?

70 components, from 32 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 Pocket 2.66 E-reader design files?

From the quintenluyten2/Pocket_2.66_E-reader_PCB repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Pocket 2.66 E-reader design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with quintenluyten2. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the Pocket 2.66 E-reader 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.
