#runtime - a PCB that converts rotational position into frequency

Components

For my input, I rolled the AS5600, which gives the exact rotational position of the PCB. For my output, I rolled a Passive piezo buzzer, which buzzes when you run a signal through it. For my connector, I rolled a Carabiner, which is added on through the hole in the PCB. I chose to use the Seeed Studio XIAO RP2040 for my microcontroller because it was beginner friendly and easy to use.

Function

When powered, the PCB will buzz from the buzzer, and based on the rotational position read by the AS5600, the buzzer will buzz at a different frequency.

Questions

How big is the Runtime PCB?

It measures 28.1 × 46 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Runtime use?

8 parts, built around the PS1240P02BT. 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 Runtime KiCad files?

From the eltonchan1/runtime repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is kicad/runtime.kicad_pcb and its schematic kicad/runtime.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Runtime design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask eltonchan1 before reusing the design.
