Overview
Controller is an open-source printed circuit board by longhoangcode, from the longhoangcode/P8B-Controller repository on GitHub, published under the CC-BY-SA-4.0 licence. It is a 2-layer board of 114 × 51 mm with 42 parts on 58 nets, routed with 240 tracks and 20 vias.
It is built around the TPS61221DCK and DMN2050L. Its parts include 15 switches, 7 connectors, 5 capacitors, 2 resistors and 2 ICs.

Repository for files for an open source gamepad using the Noridc NRF51822 microcontroller.
Intro
This repository contains all files used to create a BLE gamepad using the Nordic NRF51822 microcontroller. I am using the MDBT40-P module that is approved by Nordic for this project instead of using the NRF51822 directly.
File Structure
The schematic and bill of materials can be found at the root layer and Gerber files for the layout can be found in the Gerber directory. The actual project files are found in the Controller directory and the project itself was created with a nightly build of KiCad. I used a nightly build because it addresses many issues I was having with the "stable" version of KiCad. For reference I am currently using revision 6687.

Questions
How big is the Controller PCB?
It measures 114 × 51 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Controller use?
42 parts, built around the TPS61221DCK and DMN2050L. 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 longhoangcode/P8B-Controller repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Controller/Controller.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Controller design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the CC-BY-SA-4.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
