Questions

How big is the Sr Design PCB?

It measures 87 × 63.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Sr Design use?

46 parts, built around the LM555CN, 74VHC138MTCX and USB-A1HSW6. 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 Sr Design KiCad files?

From the EngineerGuySam/Cat-Turret repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Schematics/Sr Design/Sr Design.kicad_pcb and its schematic Schematics/Sr Design/Pan_and_Tilt.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Sr Design design in my own project?

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