Questions
How big is the Aether node PCB?
It measures 50 × 50 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Aether node use?
57 parts, built around the ESP32-C6-MINI-1U-H4, AP2112K-3.3, TP4056-42-ESOP8 and USBLC6-2SC6. 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 Aether node KiCad files?
From the Pot4too/aether-node repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/main-board/main-board.kicad_pcb and its schematic hardware/main-board/main-board.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Aether node design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Pot4too before reusing the design.
