Questions
How big is the Data logger PCB?
It measures 58.4 × 68.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Data logger use?
36 parts, built around the MAX31855KASA+T, DM3D-SF and SM04B-GHS-TB. 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 Data logger KiCad files?
From the JWehle/data-logger repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is data-logger/data-logger.kicad_pcb and its schematic data-logger/data-logger.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Data logger 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).
