Questions

How big is the Balancing cam panel PCB?

It measures 100 × 100 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.57 mm thick.

What parts does the Balancing cam panel use?

580 parts, built around the ESP32-S3-MINI-1-N8, TPS62933DRL, TMC2209-LA and LSM6DS3. 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 Balancing cam panel KiCad files?

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

Can I use the Balancing cam panel design in my own project?

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