Questions
How big is the Pylot shield PCB?
It measures 30 × 65 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Pylot shield use?
60 parts, built around the BMI160, TPS54302 and TPS73633DBV. 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 Pylot shield KiCad files?
From the jpiat/botpi repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pylot_shield/pylot_shield.kicad_pcb and its schematic pylot_shield/pylot_shield.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Pylot shield design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask jpiat before reusing the design.
