Questions

How big is the Line Sensor Board PCB?

It measures 60.5 × 85.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Line Sensor Board use?

31 parts, built around the MCP6022-I/P, 74HC04D and PN2222A. 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 Line Sensor Board KiCad files?

From the re3Dev/Extrusion-Metrology repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Line-Sensor-Board.kicad_pcb and its schematic Line-Sensor-Board.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Line Sensor Board design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask re3Dev before reusing the design.
