Questions

How big is the Controller PCB?

It measures 50 × 23 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Controller use?

36 parts, built around the ATMEGA32U4-AU. 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 Controller KiCad files?

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

Can I use the Controller design in my own project?

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