Questions

How big is the Tortoise Control PCB?

It measures 50 × 50 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Tortoise Control use?

14 parts, built around the L9110S, 74AHC1G04GW and L78L09ABU. 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 Tortoise Control KiCad files?

From the acwright/Wright-Train-Works repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Hardware/Tortoise Control/Tortoise Control.kicad_pcb and its schematic Hardware/DCC Decoder Shield/DCC Decoder Shield.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Tortoise Control design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
