Tonight I made a #kicad #electronics #pcb for testing COB #led modules. specifically the 1 to 3 watt variety. For certain applications, like near UV exposure, smaller 5 mm LEDs will not do and dealing with the packages that are just the chips is a pain. It allows an adjustment of constant current up to 2.1 A per row of 3 LEDs, and runs from a 12+ VDC supply. The bottom side is exposed copper so it can be a heatsink or attached to a bigger heatsink. It can be partially populated by JLCPCB.
