About the Power Transducer PCB

Power Transducer is an open source PCB design by columbia-fsae, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 55.8 × 20.8 mm, with 21 components from 13 distinct parts.

Other key parts include the AMC1211AQDWVRQ1 and INA114AP. By type, the board carries 7 capacitors, 4 connectors, 4 resistors, 2 ICs and 2 diodes.

From the project

This repository contains all the PCBs embedded inside the accumulator container of Columbia University's 2021 Formula SAE electric racecar. They were designed in KiCAD by Sabin Zarrandikoetxea and Bert Steyaert.

If all the CAD components can't be found in the 3D view is because some parts are referenced to a local folder in another system. They can be downladed from the "KiCAD Libraries" repository found in Sabin's CADLAB.io account. There is a link to such account in the team's GitHub, inside the "2021 Accumulator Electronics" repository.

**A component was created out of this PCB. It can be found in this very folder under "Power Transducer Library"
