Questions
How big is the Ckt axle bar array PCB?
It measures 43.2 × 154.3 mm and has 2 copper layers, 0.61 mm thick.
What parts does the Ckt axle bar array use?
84 parts, built around the SM04B-SRSS-TB and SSM6N357R,LF. 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 Ckt axle bar array KiCad files?
From the IowaScaledEngineering/ckt-axle repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is kicad/ckt-axle-bar/ckt-axle-bar-array.kicad_pcb and its schematic kicad/ard-axlesim/ard-axlesim.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Ckt axle bar array design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask IowaScaledEngineering before reusing the design.
