Questions
How big is the Encoder PCB?
It measures 22 × 22 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Encoder use?
9 parts, built around the MT6701CT-STD and VESD05A1B-HD1-GS08. 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 Encoder KiCad files?
From the project-neon/Neon_SSL_Robot repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Eletronics/Encoder/Encoder.kicad_pcb and its schematic Eletronics/Board_V0/Board_V0/Board_V0.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Encoder design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask project-neon before reusing the design.
