Questions

How big is the Breakbeam PCB?

It measures 20.3 × 16.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Breakbeam use?

5 parts, built around the VSMY2850RG. 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 Breakbeam KiCad files?

From the UBC-Thunderbots/Electrical repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is legacy/electronics/speedsensor/emitter/breakbeam.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Breakbeam design in my own project?

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