This board can be used for a QCW if you are using the traditional buck modulator and bridge design. I tested the board up to 500Khz no issue with logic and/or gate drive. For phase shift modulated designs that is another story....
I plan to release it soon. I have parts coming in this week (7mm inductors). I will have it tested in a DR by next week. At that point I will upload the files to the website.
Keep in mind that this is a very new board design, so if you use it think of it as beta testing at this point.
I will post a link to this thread when I do upload the files.

Good job, Eric!
Nice job on the layout and special thanks for taking the time to fix the original errors. I am impressed! I like the option of using both popular types of fibers. I am looking forward to using your board in the Zotzilla rotating spark gap-to-DR conversion. Ya, baby!

does your new board use surface mount or conventional IC's and have you made any schematic changes? it would be cool if there was a board for a QCW as a addendum to UD2.5 or a standalone with conventional or surface mount board.

The board pictured above is the actual board. So yes it does use SMD ICs. Yes there are also several schematic changes. I will publish the schematic and board files later tonight hopefully.
I may publish a QCW board I'm working on. But that is ways down the road. It is a design that uses ZVS and phase shift modulation. That will be a ways off as I still need to find the time to finish it.
