Questions

How big is the BC Heater PCB?

It measures 67 × 51 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the BC Heater use?

132 parts, built around the AP7370-33FDC, FM24CL16B-GTR, ESD5Z3V3 and BSS806NEH6327XTSA1. 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 BC Heater KiCad files?

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

Can I use the BC Heater design in my own project?

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