From the project
Four-layer KiCad power distribution board for the TankerVision robot: USB-C PD / barrel-jack input, supercapacitor-backed rail for clean Jetson shutdown, and four firmware-controlled protected output ports.
A four-layer KiCad power distribution board (PDB) for the TankerVision robot. It accepts USB-C PD or an 18.5–20 V DC barrel-jack input, maintains a supercapacitor-backed rail so an onboard NVIDIA Jetson can shut down cleanly after input loss, and exposes four independently protected, firmware-controlled output ports.
Designed in KiCad 9.0.7. Revision 1.0 was fabricated and assembled by JLCPCB in August 2026.

Tankervision pdb: common questions
What microcontroller does the Tankervision pdb use?
The Tankervision pdb is built around the ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N8R8, from the ESP32 family.
How big is the Tankervision pdb PCB?
The Tankervision pdb measures 100 × 100 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Tankervision pdb?
444 components, from 84 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 Tankervision pdb design files?
From the ikeefe12/tankervision-pdb repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Tankervision pdb design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with ikeefe12. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the Tankervision pdb without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug ESP32 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
