About the Magnetic encoder PCB
Magnetic encoder is an open source PCB design by Luca-Jones, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 29.9 × 29.9 mm, with 7 components from 6 distinct parts.
By type, the board carries 2 connectors, 2 capacitors, 2 resistors and 1 IC.
It belongs with the robotics & motion designs in this gallery.

The mechanical design was done with Onshape as our CAD tool. It is simple to use and allows for collaboration and version control. Many different manufacturing techniques were used such as 3D printing, laser jet cutting, water jet cutting, lathing, and milling.
The chassis was built out of hardboard and reinforced with water-jet cut aluminium bars. This component required the most communication to perfect as every other part of the robot needs to screw into it.

Magnetic encoder: common questions
How big is the Magnetic encoder PCB?
The Magnetic encoder measures 29.9 × 29.9 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Magnetic encoder?
7 components, from 6 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 Magnetic encoder design files?
From the Luca-Jones/enph-253-pet-rescue 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 Magnetic encoder design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with Luca-Jones. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
