Questions

How big is the Lego motor controller PCB?

It measures 65 × 26 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Lego motor controller use?

10 parts. 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 Lego motor controller KiCad files?

From the zzeneg/lego-motor-controller repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/pcb.kicad_pcb and its schematic pcb/pcb.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Lego motor controller design in my own project?

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