PoolMonitor: common questions

What microcontroller does the PoolMonitor use?

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

How big is the PoolMonitor PCB?

The PoolMonitor measures 54.4 × 31 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 3.66 mm thick.

How many components are on the PoolMonitor?

28 components, from 20 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the PoolMonitor design files?

From the tpanajott/PoolMonitor repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the PoolMonitor design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the PoolMonitor 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.
