Questions
How big is the Heracles PCB?
It measures 46.5 × 64.7 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Heracles use?
61 parts, built around the STM32F103CBT6, HC-05, TPS62056DGS and B3U-1000P. 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 Heracles KiCad files?
From the Peque/heracles repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hw/kicad/heracles.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Heracles design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Peque before reusing the design.
