STM32 GPS Tracking Module: common questions

What microcontroller does the STM32 GPS Tracking Module use?

The STM32 GPS Tracking Module is built around the STM32F030C8Tx, from the STM32 family.

How big is the STM32 GPS Tracking Module?

The STM32 GPS Tracking Module measures 42.5 × 58.5 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the STM32 GPS Tracking Module?

51 components, from 34 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the STM32 GPS Tracking Module design files?

From the tejashviraj19/PCB-Design-Lab repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the STM32 GPS Tracking Module design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with tejashviraj19. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the STM32 GPS Tracking Module 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.
