Questions
How big is the Transformer Driver PCB?
It measures 100 × 50 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.61 mm thick.
What parts does the Transformer Driver use?
61 parts, built around the LM5185QPWPRQ1, SMAJ60A, H12VHD3UA and H3V3HD3U. 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 Transformer Driver KiCad files?
From the MECSEM/electrical repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is HVDC/Transformer Driver/Transformer Driver.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Transformer Driver 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).
