Questions

How big is the Led controller PCB?

It measures 100 × 100 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Led controller use?

78 parts, built around the TLC5971PWP, BC817 and CMEJ-0415-42-P. 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 Led controller KiCad files?

From the willplatts/led_controller repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is HW/led_controller/led_controller.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Led controller design in my own project?

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