  Material Required

  These are the things that I used for this build

  • LEDs (NICHIA JK3030 3V.2W LED)
  • 1.5 Ohms Resistance 1206 Package
  • 0.47 Ohms Resistance 1206 Package
  • 100uf Capacitor
  • 63uH Indictor
  • SS34 Diode SMA
  • DC Barrel Jack
  • Custom PCB (which was provided by PCBWAY)
  • Custom 3D Printed body (which was also provided by PCBWAY)
  • SIC9301A led driver IC x2
  • 12V DC FAN (Generic small one)
  • 12V SMPS Power Supply
• 2

  Basic Structure

  Main Schematic (PDF is attached) is not very complex. The PCB contains two LED Driver IC setups both with their LOAD (LEDs) connected separately.

  Their Input side is connected with each other which is the common Input VCC and GND. we will supply 12V to these two terminals to run this board.

  PCB Designing

  With the Schematic, I prepared the PCB in my CAD software.
  

  The board outlines were already designed in the Fusion360, I used its measurements as a reference to make the PCB.

  I placed LEDs at the center of the board and maintained an equal distance between them, to keep things symmetrically accurate.

  Also, I've placed lots of Vias in this PCB. Vias cover almost 70% of this PCB and they are here for Conducting heat as well as connecting one side with another side of the board.

  Anyways, after finishing the PCB, I exported its Gerber data and send it to PCBWay for samples.
