Questions
How big is the Chicken coop PCB?
It measures 88.9 × 55.9 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Chicken coop use?
17 parts, built around the ESP32-CAM. 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 Chicken coop KiCad files?
From the vortex314/iot-server repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is esphome/kicad/chicken_coop/chicken_coop.kicad_pcb and its schematic esphome/kicad/chicken_coop/chicken_coop.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Chicken coop design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask vortex314 before reusing the design.
