Questions

How big is the LoadCell PCB?

It measures 9.7 × 16 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the LoadCell use?

13 parts, built around the LMV358. 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 LoadCell KiCad files?

From the synthetos/gQuintic-LoadCell repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is LoadCell.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the LoadCell design in my own project?

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