Questions
How big is the Robot Controller PCB?
It measures 55 × 75 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Robot Controller use?
79 parts, built around the RP2354A, AP2112K-3.3, DW01A and MAX668EUB. 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 Robot Controller KiCad files?
From the RaifeRiver/HalfLifeWeek1 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/Robot Controller.kicad_pcb and its schematic PCB/Robot Controller.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Robot Controller design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask RaifeRiver before reusing the design.
