Questions
How big is the Plant controller PCB?
It measures 41.9 × 71.1 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Plant controller use?
15 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 Plant controller KiCad files?
From the frodegill/misc_pcbs repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is plant_controller/plant_controller.kicad_pcb and its schematic cd74hc4067/cd74hc4067.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Plant controller design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
