Questions

How big is the Ikapad controller PCB?

It measures 79.4 × 12.1 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Ikapad controller use?

5 parts. 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 Ikapad controller KiCad files?

From the evq/ikapad repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is controller/ikapad-controller.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Ikapad controller design in my own project?

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