Questions
How big is the Node Controller PCB?
It measures 80 × 46 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Node Controller use?
89 parts, built around the ESP32-MINI-1, DMN3404L, B4B-XH-AM-BK and QTLP601CRTR. 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 Node Controller KiCad files?
From the demeter-hydroponics/demeter-boards repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Node Controller V2/Node Controller.kicad_pcb and its schematic Column Controller V2/Block_Diagram.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Node Controller design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask demeter-hydroponics before reusing the design.
