Surface Mounted Devices:
- F1 = Littelfuse 0451 (to protect the circuit from overcurrent)
- D1 = SMBJ15A TVS diode (12-input transient suppression)
- U1 = SN65HVD230 (CANBUS Transceiver)
- U2 = Polulu D24V10F5 (12 to 5V converter)

Questions
How big is the AKS PCB?
It measures 29 × 63.9 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the AKS use?
13 parts, built around the SN65HVD230D. 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 AKS KiCad files?
From the jkim7113/AKS_PCB repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is AKS.kicad_pcb and its schematic AKS.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the AKS design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask jkim7113 before reusing the design.
