Questions

How big is the Esc PCB?

It measures 102.1 × 118.9 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Esc use?

113 parts, built around the IR2110L4, LM393 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 Esc KiCad files?

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

Can I use the Esc design in my own project?

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