About the project

This Repo contains the files to re-use old photo-electric sensors to create a very responsive and accurate timing gate system close to Brower's or other commercial products. The goal of this project was to create a product that is easy to use and creates accurate timings for a Track&Field application, where very milisecond counts. Further documentation and photos can be found on florianvanderdussen.nl.

Questions

How big is the ET V6 PCB?

It measures 63.5 × 48.3 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the ET V6 use?

67 parts, built around the TPS630702RNMR, CC0603KRX7R9BB104, CL21A226MAYNNNE and 0603CG331J500NT. 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 ET V6 KiCad files?

From the FlorianvdDussen/ET_V6 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is KICAD/ET_V6.kicad_pcb and its schematic ET_V6.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the ET V6 design in my own project?

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