Questions
How big is the Chassis PCB?
It measures 60.3 × 52.7 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Chassis use?
108 parts, built around the TCMT1107, TPS23754PWPR, MMDT3906 and PT61017PEL. 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 Chassis KiCad files?
From the crawford/PoE repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/chassis/chassis.kicad_pcb and its schematic hardware/chassis/chassis.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Chassis design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
