Transmitting IP packages over a pair of spaghetti thus demonstrating how media independent IP really is.

Excited to share a new milestone in my hardware journey! 🚀 I recently started diving into PCB design using KiCad, and for my very first board, I designed a basic IR Sensor Module.
IR MODULE is an open-source printed circuit board by devanshudev7, from the devanshudev7/IR-SENS0R-MODULE-PCB repository on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board of 23.5 × 17.5 mm with 9 parts on 7 nets, routed with 95 tracks and 15 vias.
It is built around the LM358. Its parts include 3 resistors, 3 diodes, 1 IC and 1 connector.

It has been incredibly rewarding to take this from a theoretical schematic down to routing the physical traces and finally seeing the 3D render come to life.
A few key takeaways from my first build:
✅ Understanding the core working principles of IR sensors and how to integrate them into a circuit.
✅ Schematic capture and footprint assignment.
✅ Component placement and trace routing.

It measures 23.5 × 17.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
9 parts, built around the LM358. 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.
From the devanshudev7/IR-SENS0R-MODULE-PCB repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is IR_MODULE.kicad_pcb and its schematic IR_MODULE.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask devanshudev7 before reusing the design.
