Questions
How big is the Controller PCB?
It measures 103.5 × 70 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Controller use?
19 parts, built around the THB001P. 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 Controller KiCad files?
From the Cyclic007/ConvolutiedController repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/controller/controller.kicad_pcb and its schematic PCB/controller/controller.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Controller design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the Apache-2.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
