# OtterPill

OtterPill is a 3$ STM32F072 devboard featuring USB 2.0 full-speed, a DFU Bootloader, a USB-PD Phy and Arduino nano alike pinout and size.

Changelog V1.2: BOM cost reduction by ~40%, PCB can be fully populated by JLCSMT, more efficient buck converter (PCB gets less warm at 20V), GND-hook for probing, Reset-Pin exposed as pad, power pads for 20V/5A

**How do I get an OtterPill?** 
I have made a small production run, OtterPills will be available soon! More details will be announced via [Twitter](https://twitter.com/janhenrikh/) :3

## Building and Flashing
### Via Arduino

[You can build and flash the firmware via Arduino as described here.](https://github.com/stm32duino/Arduino_Core_STM32)

### Via PlatformIO

[https://gist.github.com/ansemjo/ab1c12f7c78abb140f7272501aff2a55](https://gist.github.com/ansemjo/ab1c12f7c78abb140f7272501aff2a55) Thank you [ansemjo](https://github.com/ansemjo) :3

### Via Makefile and DFU

Or you can generate a basic firmware, with HAL init and Makefile, with CubeMX. The binary can then be build with make and flashed with dfu-utils. To enter DFU mode, press and hold the Button while plugging in power.

    $ make
    $ dfu-util -a 0 -s 0x08000000:leave -D build/firmware.bin
