Overview

Board lights is an open-source printed circuit board by etanase, from the etanase/board-lights repository on GitHub. It is a 4-layer board of 53.3 × 63.5 mm with 44 parts on 59 nets, routed with 100 tracks and 200 vias.

It is built around the 74LVC2G17GW, LMR38025SQDRRRQ1 and LM1117LD-3.3. Its parts include 15 capacitors, 15 resistors, 5 ICs, 4 connectors and 2 diodes. It belongs with the ESP32 boards of this library.

Known issues

This was my first real PCB project, so there were many (easily fixable) issues, but it still works as-is.

  • Did not pull EN high (whoops). Bridge the two upper pins of the connector after the board is powered on.
  • ESP-Prog connector is mirrored (whoops again).
  • The output capacitor I planned to use did not support 24V. There is a capacitor with the same footprint and lower capacitance but higher max voltage that I used instead. Let me know if you want the full BOM.
  • There is no power switch. I intented to use an inline waterproof switch on the connector, but it would have been nice to be able to disable the board without unplugging it or pulling the fuse.
  • There are no holes (or space for them) to connect it to a mount.
  • Level shifter did not work. I just bridged the pins and it works fine.

Questions

How big is the Board lights PCB?

It measures 53.3 × 63.5 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.61 mm thick.

What parts does the Board lights use?

44 parts, built around the 74LVC2G17GW, LMR38025SQDRRRQ1 and LM1117LD-3.3. 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 Board lights KiCad files?

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

Can I use the Board lights design in my own project?

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