Questions
How big is the Gate driver PCB?
It measures 90 × 50 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Gate driver use?
39 parts, built around the ES1F. 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 Gate driver KiCad files?
From the switchcraft/kicad-projects repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Gate_drive_module_Si8285/Gate_driver.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Gate driver design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask switchcraft before reusing the design.
