Questions
How big is the Generator pcb PCB?
It measures 142 × 70 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Generator pcb use?
31 parts. 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 Generator pcb KiCad files?
From the tkqa1ex/motor-test-stand-pcb repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is generator-pcb.kicad_pcb and its schematic control-board/motor-pcb.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Generator pcb design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask tkqa1ex before reusing the design.
