From the project
This project is a compact LED torch PCB designed as part of the PCB Design with KiCad - Updated for KiCad 9 Udemy course.
This project is a compact LED torch PCB designed as part of the PCB Design with KiCad - Updated for KiCad 9 Udemy course.
The circuit uses a single battery cell to power an LED through a current-limiting resistor and an SPST switch.
This project was recreated in KiCad as part of my practical PCB design learning process.
- Single-cell battery - SPST ON/OFF switch - 1 kΩ current-limiting resistor - 5 mm LED

Led Torch: common questions
How big is the Led Torch PCB?
The Led Torch measures 57.4 × 26.4 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Led Torch?
4 components, from 4 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the Led Torch design files?
From the Reon-02/PCB-Design-with-KiCad-Udemy repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Led Torch design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with Reon-02. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
