Questions
How big is the Wificar PCB?
It measures 71.6 × 50 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Wificar use?
15 parts, built around the ESP32-WROOM-32U, L298N and LM2596S-5.0. 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 Wificar KiCad files?
From the ah-coded/EDES301 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is project_02/wificar.kicad_pcb and its schematic project_02/wificar.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Wificar design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask ah-coded before reusing the design.
