Questions

How big is the Current sense PCB?

It measures 38.3 × 29.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Current sense use?

19 parts, built around the AD8207WBR. 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 Current sense KiCad files?

From the Roboy/bldc_testbed repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcbs/current_sense/current_sense.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Current sense design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the BSD-3-Clause licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
