Overview

Smart relay controller is an open-source printed circuit board by Charla1an, from the Charla1an/ArduinoUnoLearningLogs repository on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board of 44.6 × 45.2 mm with 8 parts on 34 nets, routed with 30 tracks and 1 via.

It is built around the S8050. Its parts include 2 resistors, 2 diodes, 2 switches and 1 transistor. It belongs with the home automation and IoT boards and the AVR (ATmega, ATtiny) boards of this library.

Arduino Uno (Captain’s Logs)

This repository documents my journey learning Arduino through hands-on projects, experiments, and incremental improvements.

I started with little to no experience in electronics or embedded systems, and this log captures how I am building that understanding step by step by actually wiring circuits, writing code, and debugging real problems.

Rather than focusing on polished final results, this repository emphasizes:

  • learning through building
  • understanding how and why things work
  • improving logic and structure over time

What you'll find here

  • Small projects and experiments (LED control, sensors, basic systems)
  • Progression from simple implementations to more structured solutions
  • Notes on mistakes, fixes, and what I learned from each build

Goal

To develop a solid foundation in Arduino, electronics, and embedded thinking by consistently building and improving real systems.


Log ongoing - entries updated as new systems are built and tested.

Questions

How big is the Smart relay controller PCB?

It measures 44.6 × 45.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Smart relay controller use?

8 parts, built around the S8050. 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 Smart relay controller KiCad files?

From the Charla1an/ArduinoUnoLearningLogs repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is 17_smart_relay_controller/pcb/kicad/smart_relay_controller.kicad_pcb and its schematic 17_smart_relay_controller/pcb/kicad/smart_relay_controller.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Smart relay controller design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Charla1an before reusing the design.
