Questions
What parts does the Gate driver use?
34 parts, built around the HCPL-316J and 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/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.
