Based on idea/ realization of breakout board https://github.com/dokuhn/openDTU-BreakoutBoard

Very first beginner trial to do first own PCB.

Unfortunately wrong lib for SSD1306 used, so display is not fully at desired location

Goal is to have a PCB with NodeMCU + nRF chip + SSD1306 display (not size optimized)

Picture of first full assembly:

Issues: None, initially could not get the display running: https://github.com/tbnobody/OpenDTU/discussions/532#discussioncomment-4935189 However with upgrade of firmware to https://github.com/tbnobody/OpenDTU/commits/b5d099f it is running now :).

First version for case can be found in the openscad directory. Updated now with picture of case, fits perfectly.

5 PCBs not used, if anyone interested in Munich area, pls do not hesitate to contact me.

Second PCB version now in production: https://github.com/SteffMUC/openDTU_wDisplay2

Questions

How big is the OpenDTU wDisplay PCB?

It measures 104.1 × 50.3 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the OpenDTU wDisplay use?

9 parts. 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 OpenDTU wDisplay KiCad files?

From the SteffMUC/openDTU_wDisplay repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is kikad/openDTU_wDisplay.kicad_pcb and its schematic kikad/openDTU_wDisplay.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the OpenDTU wDisplay design in my own project?

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