Questions
How big is the Controller PCB?
It measures 21 × 51 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Controller use?
36 parts, built around the RP2040. 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 Controller KiCad files?
From the linuskang/devboard repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Controller.kicad_pcb and its schematic Controller.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Controller design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask linuskang before reusing the design.
