Full-cycle hardware designs for security research devices — each device is a subfolder with its own README, schematics, PCB layout, and software stack
Device is an open-source printed circuit board by jayis1, from the jayis1/hacker-devices repository on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board of 118 × 68 mm with 19 parts on 135 nets, routed with 21 tracks and 27 vias.
It is built around the STM32H743VIT6, NINA-B306-00B and TPS62743YFP, with the W25Q128JVSIQ, IS42S32800G-6BL and MCP73831 among its other parts. Its parts include 8 ICs, 5 capacitors, 3 connectors, 2 diodes and 1 switch. It belongs with the STM32 boards of this library.
A collection of fully open-source hardware designs for legitimate security research and pentesting. Every device is complete end-to-end: engineering docs, KiCad schematics & PCB layouts, production C/Python firmware, and React Native companion apps. Build it, flash it, run the app, start researching.
No half-finished reference designs. Each device folder contains the full stack:
| Category | Files | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Engineering Docs | phase1_conceptual_architecture.md → phase4_software_stack.md | 4-phase design process: requirements, BOM & netlists, PCB layout rules, software stack |
| KiCad Schematics | kicad/*.kicad_pro, *.kicad_sch, *.kicad_pcb | Full schematic with real component symbols, net labels, power flags, and board outline with placed footprints |
| C/Python Firmware | firmware/main.c, registers.h, board.h, drivers/, Makefile | Production-quality MCU firmware — init code, drivers with DMA, USB descriptors, wire protocol |
| React Native App | app/App.js, screens/, components/, utils/protocol.js, package.json | Companion mobile app for device control, configuration, real-time status, and data capture |
Every device follows a rigorous 4-phase process:
| Phase | Document | Contents |
|---|---|---|
| Phase 1 | phase1_conceptual_architecture.md | Purpose, performance targets, constraints, block diagram, bus topology, power domains |
| Phase 2 | phase2_component_selection_schematics.md | BOM with real part numbers, pinouts/MUX tables, decoupling networks, netlists, impedance matching |
| Phase 3 | phase3_pcb_blueprints_layout.md | PCB stackup, routing rules, length matching, via strategy, thermal management, DFM notes |
| Phase 4 | phase4_software_stack.md | MMIO/register defs, clock & GPIO init (production C), critical device driver, device tree, bootloader |

It measures 118 × 68 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
19 parts, built around the STM32H743VIT6, NINA-B306-00B, TPS62743YFP and W25Q128JVSIQ. 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.
From the jayis1/hacker-devices repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is eddy-phantom/kicad/device.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask jayis1 before reusing the design.
