Questions

How big is the Load cell PCB?

It measures 6.6 × 5.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Load cell use?

6 parts, built around the DPS368XTSA1. 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 Load cell KiCad files?

From the Roboy/load_cell repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is dps368/load_cell.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Load cell 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).
