Questions
How big is the Front PCB?
It measures 28.9 × 51.8 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Front use?
22 parts, built around the ESP32-S2-MINI-2-N4, DRV8836DSS and LD1117AG-33-AA3-A-R. 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 Front KiCad files?
From the ray33ee/radiator_rust repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is schematics/front/front.kicad_pcb and its schematic schematics/dev_board/dev_board.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Front design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask ray33ee before reusing the design.
