Questions

How big is the Lowering platform PCB?

It measures 27.9 × 43.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Lowering platform use?

9 parts, built around the IRLB8721PBF. 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 Lowering platform KiCad files?

From the SaddlebackCollegeRobotics/lowering_platform_pcb repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is lowering platform.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Lowering platform design in my own project?

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