Questions

How big is the Stepper motor controller PCB?

It measures 54.4 × 49.3 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Stepper motor controller use?

42 parts, built around the TMC5160A-TA-T and AOD4126. 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 Stepper motor controller KiCad files?

From the eranknafo2001/stepper-motor-controller repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is stepper-motor-controller.kicad_pcb and its schematic TMC5160A.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Stepper motor controller design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask eranknafo2001 before reusing the design.
