Questions

How big is the EPS PCB?

It measures 85 × 85 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the EPS use?

657 parts, built around the 74LVC1G07, SN65HVD230D, TPL5010EVM and NCS211RSQ. 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 EPS KiCad files?

From the rgw3d/1KCubeSat_Hardware repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is eps_board/EPS.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the EPS 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).
