Inverter vcu: common questions

What microcontroller does the Inverter vcu use?

The Inverter vcu is built around the STM32F103C8Tx, from the STM32 family.

How big is the Inverter vcu PCB?

The Inverter vcu measures 69.9 × 65.4 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Inverter vcu?

49 components, from 24 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Inverter vcu design files?

From the Vaaarad07/PCB_Designs repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Inverter vcu design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which Vaaarad07 chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Inverter vcu 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.
