Questions
How big is the Induction encoder PCB?
It measures 68 × 36.8 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.61 mm thick.
What parts does the Induction encoder use?
72 parts, built around the MT9105ET, ADS1115IDGS and IPS2200. 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 Induction encoder KiCad files?
From the Twisted-Fields/induction_encoder repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is induction_encoder.kicad_pcb and its schematic induction_encoder.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Induction encoder design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Twisted-Fields before reusing the design.
