Questions
How big is the FTController PCB?
It measures 99.1 × 60.3 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the FTController use?
94 parts, built around the ATMEGA328-AU, NRF24L01, CNY17-1 and LD1117S33TR(MS). 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 FTController KiCad files?
From the jbtronics/FTController repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/FTController.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the FTController design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask jbtronics before reusing the design.
