SmallKatBatteryCharger: common questions

What microcontroller does the SmallKatBatteryCharger use?

The SmallKatBatteryCharger is built around the STM32L432KBUx, from the STM32 family.

How big is the SmallKatBatteryCharger PCB?

The SmallKatBatteryCharger measures 50 × 50 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1 mm thick.

How many components are on the SmallKatBatteryCharger?

58 components, from 35 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the SmallKatBatteryCharger design files?

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

Can I use the SmallKatBatteryCharger design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the SmallKatBatteryCharger without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug STM32 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
