About the SyringeControlSystem PCB
SyringeControlSystem is an open source PCB design by EricYufengWu, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 36.8 × 79.4 mm, with 9 components from 5 distinct parts.
By type, the board carries 4 resistors, 2 switches and 2 diodes.
It belongs with the robotics & motion designs in this gallery.
From the project
This repository hosts code, PCB designs, and other results from my undergraduate independent research course. This research is supervised by Professor Chris Rogers at Tufts University.
This repository hosts code, PCB designs, and other results from my undergraduate independent research course. This research is supervised by Professor Chris Rogers at Tufts University.
The goal of the research is to develop a low-cost, modular pneumatic system that controls soft actuators using a linear actuator and a medical syringe. If time allows, I will also try to perform a well-rounded comparison between my new system and traditional controlling methods like this one.. For now, the system is named "Syringe Control System", or SCS in short.

SyringeControlSystem: common questions
How big is the SyringeControlSystem PCB?
The SyringeControlSystem measures 36.8 × 79.4 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the SyringeControlSystem?
9 components, from 5 distinct parts, with part numbers taken from the project's own BOM. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the SyringeControlSystem design files?
From the EricYufengWu/SyringeControlSystem repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the SyringeControlSystem design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with EricYufengWu. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
