Kirigami PCB Mod

Overview of the PCB's

This mod adds two PCBs (Frame PCB, Kirigami PCB) and a cable (Cable) to the V0.1/V0.2 that can aid in wire management and routing.

There are also optional things like a Bed Fan or a Kirigami-Front.


Frame PCB

The frame PCB mounts on the side in the electronics bay of the printer and combines all cables into a single 10 pin Micro-Fit 3.0 connector. (With neopixel loop-through.)

Kirigami PCB

Mounted on the Kirigami bed mount, this breaks out the 10 pin harness into all needed connectors.

Cable and chain

The Cable is a dual ended 10P (2x5) microfit cable. The connectors are wired 1:5, 6:10 so pin 1 connects to pin 5, pin 2 connects to pin 4 and so forth for all 10 pins.

Only 2 of the 10 wires are shown for clarity. Connect each number to its opposite. (in it's row!)

Questions

How big is the Kirigami pcb PCB?

It measures 67.7 × 69.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Kirigami pcb use?

16 parts. 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 Kirigami pcb KiCad files?

From the livinhack/Kirigami-PCB repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Kicad/V1/kirigami_pcb/kirigami_pcb.kicad_pcb and its schematic Kicad/V1/frame_pcb/frame_pcb.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Kirigami pcb design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
