Questions

How big is the W sense PCB?

It measures 24 × 131 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the W sense use?

30 parts, built around the ESP32-C3-MINI-1, LL4148, MMBT3906 and SS14. 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 W sense KiCad files?

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

Can I use the W sense design in my own project?

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