Orbit

About the Orbit PCB

Orbit is an open source ESP8266 PCB design by shasradha, published on GitHub under the MIT license. It is a board, with 15 components from 11 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the ESP-12E, from the ESP8266 family. By type, the board carries 6 switches, 5 resistors, 1 IC, 1 connector, 1 battery holder and 1 diode.

It belongs with the iot & wireless, wearables and displays & leds designs in this gallery.

From the project

Wrist-worn WiFi security testing tool — ESP8266 + OLED in a modified SKMEI watch case. KiCad hardware, BOM, 3D model, and a re-pinned build of Spacehuhn's ESP8266 Deauther.

A wearable WiFi security-testing platform, disguised as a wristwatch.

Custom ESP8266 hardware inside a repurposed SKMEI watch case, running a modified build of Spacehuhn's ESP8266 Deauther. This repository is the complete build: KiCad schematics, bill of materials, 3D enclosure model, and adapted firmware.

Orbit: common questions

What microcontroller does the Orbit use?

The Orbit is built around the ESP-12E, from the ESP8266 family.

How many components are on the Orbit?

15 components, from 11 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Orbit design files?

From the shasradha/Orbit repository on GitHub, which has the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Orbit design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which shasradha chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Orbit without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug ESP8266 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
