Questions
How big is the Ghost host PCB?
It measures 127.5 × 68.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Ghost host use?
182 parts, built around the PCA9615DPZ, BM04B-GHS-TBT(LF)(SN), XY-SM06B-GHS-TB and XL-5050RGBC-2812B. 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 Ghost host KiCad files?
From the VEXU-GHOST/ghost_kicad repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is host/ghost_host.kicad_pcb and its schematic Charging_PCB_Proj/Charging_PCB_Proj.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Ghost host design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask VEXU-GHOST before reusing the design.
