Questions
How big is the Control Module PCB?
It measures 50.3 × 37.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Control Module use?
64 parts, built around the LSM6DSL, USBLC6-2SC6, SIS454DN and VS5V0UA1LAMTR. 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 Control Module KiCad files?
From the Rowan-Rocketry/Control-Module repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/control-module.kicad_pcb and its schematic pcb/3v7 LiPo to 3v3 Supply.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Control Module design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Rowan-Rocketry before reusing the design.
