Kicker: common questions

What microcontroller does the Kicker use?

The Kicker is built around the STM32F407VETX, from the STM32 family.

How big is the Kicker PCB?

The Kicker measures 116 × 126 mm, has 6 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Kicker?

253 components, from 101 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 Kicker design files?

From the SSL-A-Team/electrical 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 Kicker design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which SSL-A-Team chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Kicker 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.
