Questions
How big is the Driver control PCB?
It measures 90.7 × 52.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Driver control use?
38 parts, built around the L293D and LM35DZ. 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 Driver control KiCad files?
From the ericbrauer/driver_control repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is KiCad/project.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Driver control design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask ericbrauer before reusing the design.
