From the project
Brushless motor driver using ST L6235 made with KiCAD.
Implements the "typical application" (datasheet) as a single sided PCB.
- Require a 5V logic supply voltage (LOGI1), as well as a power one (PWR1) - 69.8*66mm. 4 M3 mounting holes - Variable reference voltage as described in the (application note) through VREF pin (CMD1)
