Flaps & Speed

A KiCad project for a hardware module designed to interface with flap and speed sensors, likely for aviation or automotive applications.

Features

  • CAN Bus Communication: Includes CAN-In and CAN-Out interfaces using the SN65HVD230 transceiver.
  • Connectors: Utilizes M12 5-pin connectors for reliable external connections.
  • Power: Designed for 12V input with onboard 3.3V regulation, Micro BEC SE-0509
  • Display: Connected (H7-H14) to a ESP32-S3-Touch-AMOLED-1.75, Wiki

Software

This hardware module is designed to run the following software: Flaps and Speed Display

Todo

  • Review PCB toward a more professional layout
  • Crate a PCBWay ready BOM
  • Add more professional displays connector
  • Test kicad-happy ???

Questions

What parts does the Flaps&Speed use?

15 parts, built around the SN65HVD230D and ACT1210-220-2P-TL00. 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 Flaps&Speed KiCad files?

From the ubx/Flaps_and_Speed_Display_HW repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Flaps&Speed.kicad_pcb and its schematic Flaps&Speed.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Flaps&Speed design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
