BYTE Magnetic
About the BYTE Magnetic PCB
BYTE Magnetic is an open source PCB design by oneohm, published on GitHub under the GPL-3.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 18 × 23 mm, with 18 components from 12 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the DRV2605LDGS, ADS1115IDGS, PTCA9536BDTMR, SI7210-B-12-IM2 and SI7210-B-13-IM2. By type, the board carries 6 ICs, 6 capacitors, 3 diodes, 1 module, 1 connector and 1 resistor.

You'll find here the KiCad projects for the different sensor packs.
- BYTE_Sensors.pretty: Library folder for all the KiCad footprints used in the sensor pack development.
- BYTEFSR: First sensor pack used, only FSR for X/Y axis. - BYTEBite: First sensor pack used, only FSR also for the bite. - BYTE_Capacitive: Sensor intended to be used as capacitive feedback for FSR shift error. - ...more to come.
