Questions
How big is the Robot PCB PCB?
It measures 58.3 × 78.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Robot PCB use?
17 parts, built around the LM2596S-5.0 and LSM9DS1. 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 Robot PCB KiCad files?
From the OnkarMore20/Robot_PCB repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/pcb.kicad_pcb and its schematic pcb/pcb.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Robot PCB design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask OnkarMore20 before reusing the design.
