Questions

How big is the GateControl PCB?

It measures 72 × 66 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the GateControl use?

64 parts, built around the A4950ELJTR-T-MS, P6KE13A and TSC015A03518A. 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 GateControl KiCad files?

From the Todoori/GateControl repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is DesignFiles/ECAD/GateControl/GateControl.kicad_pcb and its schematic DesignFiles/ECAD/GateControl/CurrentSense.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the GateControl design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Todoori before reusing the design.
