Questions

How big is the Current sink swim PCB?

It measures 49.3 × 42.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Current sink swim use?

23 parts, built around the LMV358IDT, AC01000001007JA100, 1N4148WT-7-CN and IRF540N. 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 Current sink swim KiCad files?

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

Can I use the Current sink swim design in my own project?

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