Questions

How big is the Mag encoder PCB?

It measures 21.8 × 31.8 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Mag encoder use?

24 parts, built around the MA732GQ, AP2120N-3.3TRG1 and BSS84. 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 Mag encoder KiCad files?

From the frc971/electrical repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is circuit-boards/shaft-encoders/mag-encoder/mag-encoder.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Mag encoder design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the Apache-2.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
