About the FacePlate PCB

FacePlate is an open source PCB design by sfunderbots, published on GitHub. It is a 4-layer board measuring 129.6 × 45 mm, with 46 components from 16 distinct parts.

Other key parts include the GC9A, MCP2515T-I/ST, SN65HVD233 and AMS1117-3.3. By type, the board carries 22 resistors, 10 capacitors, 8 connectors, 5 ICs and 1 crystal.

It belongs with the robotics & motion, displays & leds and power & battery designs in this gallery.

From the project

PCB etc.

The Faceplate[^1], one of five of our robot's on board custom PCBs (not including the Raspberry Pi), is a connector and peripheral board between the Raspberry Pi and the rest of the robot system. As this documentation pertains to the Robocup Small Size League Autonomous Soccer, this documentation will be very specific in its use case. The new version of the faceplate incorporates connectors for mouse sensors (localization improvement) and an offboard IMU (placed closer to the center of the robot with less vibration). All five boards contained on our robot (six including the Raspberry Pi), for…

FacePlate: common questions

How big is the FacePlate PCB?

The FacePlate measures 129.6 × 45 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the FacePlate?

46 components, from 16 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 FacePlate design files?

From the sfunderbots/Electrical 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 FacePlate design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with sfunderbots. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
