Questions

How big is the MotorController PCB?

It measures 60 × 50 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the MotorController use?

24 parts, built around the L298N and L7805. 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 MotorController KiCad files?

From the nandanpi/PCB-Design repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Projects/MotorController/MotorController.kicad_pcb and its schematic Projects/555Timer/555Timer.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the MotorController design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask nandanpi before reusing the design.
