A small gift. Heart shape PCB with STM32L0 microcontroller, TCA6416A I2C GPIO expander, LIS3DH accelerometer, BS812A touch sensor and some fancy leds.

It can be used as a keychain. It is operates on a CR2450 coin cell battery. There is a few led patterns which can be start by press a touch button or shake. When the device does not recognize any event in 10 seconds it will enter the low power mode and can be woke up only by touching button. In this mode the power consumption is about 25 uA.

Questions

How big is the Heart PCB?

It measures 47.6 × 42.4 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Heart use?

68 parts, built around the LIS3DH and CR2450. 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 Heart KiCad files?

From the lime7git/heart repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is heart-hardware/pcb/heart/heart.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Heart design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask lime7git before reusing the design.
