Questions

How big is the Game Controller PCB?

It measures 162.6 × 86.4 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Game Controller use?

20 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 Game Controller KiCad files?

From the naviatolin/Game_Controller repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is KiCAD/Game_Controller.kicad_pcb and its schematic KiCAD/Game_Controller.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Game Controller design in my own project?

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