Questions

How big is the Light controller PCB?

It measures 114.8 × 68.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Light controller use?

38 parts, built around the AP63205WU, CPC1002N and PJ-051AH. 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 Light controller KiCad files?

From the cmumford/light-controller repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is board/LightController/LightController.kicad_pcb and its schematic board/LightController/LightController.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Light controller 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).
