Questions

How big is the ScubarLightController PCB?

It measures 88.9 × 73.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the ScubarLightController use?

65 parts, built around the SN74AHCT125N, L293D and BC547. 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 ScubarLightController KiCad files?

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

Can I use the ScubarLightController design in my own project?

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