Overview

Wasbeer communicator is an open-source printed circuit board by FunDeckHermit, from the FunDeckHermit/hw-communicator repository on GitHub, published under the MIT licence. It is a 2-layer board of 83 × 100 mm with 21 parts on 43 nets, routed with 285 tracks and 26 vias.

It is built around the E22-900M22S, TP4056 and DMG2302U. Its parts include 13 diodes, 3 ICs, 2 switches, 1 resistor and 1 transistor. It belongs with the RP2040 boards of this library.

HW-communicator

Devices that can communicate state to one another.

Project uses a Raspberry Pi Pico W, a Lora antenna, TP4056 lithium-ion cell charger to transmit a selected phrase. This selected phrase is picked up by another module and displayed.

All firmware code is written in micropython.

Todo:

  • Wifi communication
  • LoraWAN communication
  • Pickup firmware

What would I do differently:

  • Add USB-B port somewhere
  • Add buzzer
  • Move 18650 holder a bit higher

Questions

How big is the Wasbeer communicator PCB?

It measures 83 × 100 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Wasbeer communicator use?

21 parts, built around the E22-900M22S, TP4056 and DMG2302U. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Wasbeer communicator KiCad files?

From the FunDeckHermit/hw-communicator repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Wasbeer-communicator.kicad_pcb and its schematic Wasbeer-communicator.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Wasbeer communicator design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
