Questions

How big is the Arm controller PCB?

It measures 22.9 × 27.9 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Arm controller use?

12 parts, built around the DRV11873PWP. 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 Arm controller KiCad files?

From the RepRapLtd/RobotComponents repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is ServoArm/Electronics/arm-controller/arm-controller.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Arm controller design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
