Questions
How big is the Flowstick led strip panel PCB?
It measures 86.4 × 141.4 mm and has 2 copper layers, 0.8 mm thick.
What parts does the Flowstick led strip panel use?
886 parts, built around the APA102-2020. 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 Flowstick led strip panel KiCad files?
From the ervanalb/flowstick repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is flowstick_led_strip_pcbs/flowstick_led_strip_panel.kicad_pcb and its schematic flowstick_junction_pcb/flowstick_junction_pcb.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Flowstick led strip panel design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask ervanalb before reusing the design.
