Questions

How big is the CurrentSense PCB?

It measures 50 × 30 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the CurrentSense use?

12 parts, built around the 0.1UF 50V 5*11. 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 CurrentSense KiCad files?

From the matthewlai/CurrentSense repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is current_sense/current_sense.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the CurrentSense 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).
