Questions

How big is the PyControl DSeries PCB?

It measures 90.2 × 66.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the PyControl DSeries use?

17 parts, built around the R-78E5.0-1.0, TBD62083APG, DF40HC(4.0)-40DS-0.4V(70) and 10118194-0001LF. 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 PyControl DSeries KiCad files?

From the Karpova-Lab/pyControl-D-Series-Breakout repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/pyControl_DSeries.kicad_pcb and its schematic pcb/pyControl_DSeries.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the PyControl DSeries design in my own project?

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