Esc driver
About the Esc driver PCB
Esc driver is an open source PCB design by savob, published on GitHub under the CERN-OHL-W-2.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 49 × 34 mm, with 18 components from 8 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the IRS2334S and FAN7888. By type, the board carries 6 transistors, 3 diodes, 3 capacitors, 2 ICs, 2 connectors and 2 resistors.
From the project
My custom ESC project
Here are the files related to the hardware design. They are all from KiCad 7.0.10 at the oldest.
- escvX are different versions of the ESC - drivericadapter is a board I designed to act as an adapter so I could seat an IRS2334S chip on the footprint for a FAN7x88 chip - escdriver is a board just meant to hold the power stage of the ESC so one can connect it to different control circuits
