Questions

How big is the Ground Powering Unit PCB?

It measures 47.6 × 46.3 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Ground Powering Unit use?

15 parts, built around the MBR745. 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 Ground Powering Unit KiCad files?

From the UMSATS/Ground-Powering-Unit repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Ground-Powering-Unit.kicad_pcb and its schematic Ground-Powering-Unit.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Ground Powering Unit design in my own project?

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