About the THCLIP PCB
THCLIP is an open source PCB design by MetalMusings, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 47.3 × 35.4 mm, with 8 components from 8 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the RS3K-2424S/H3. By type, the board carries 4 resistors, 2 connectors, 1 IC and 1 diode.
It belongs with the robotics & motion designs in this gallery.
From the project
Documentation accompanying the "Make My Own EtherCAT device" video serie on Youtube.
This repository contains the EtherCAT devices I have designed, built and put in use in linuxcnc.
Everything should be here: - Schematics, PCB layouts, and what is needed to build the boards. - Software tools to create an ESI-file and program the ESC eeprom. - Software tools to create the application running on a STM32F407VG. - A big learning curve is hidden in here as well

THCLIP: common questions
How big is the THCLIP PCB?
The THCLIP measures 47.3 × 35.4 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the THCLIP?
8 components, from 8 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the THCLIP design files?
From the MetalMusings/MyOwnEtherCATDevice repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the THCLIP design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with MetalMusings. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
