Questions

How big is the Controller PCB?

It measures 240 × 125 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Controller use?

277 parts, built around the SN65HVD72D, VNH3SP30-E, LTV-814 and ULN2801A. 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 Controller KiCad files?

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

Can I use the Controller design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the Apache-2.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
