Questions

How big is the PiADAC PCB?

It measures 64 × 55 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the PiADAC use?

80 parts, built around the PCM1863DBTR, PCM5242RHBR, NCP1631D and AT24CS01-STUM-T. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the PiADAC KiCad files?

From the 423F26/project2 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is HW/piADAC/piADAC.kicad_pcb and its schematic HW/I-O/HWIO/HWIO.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the PiADAC design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask 423F26 before reusing the design.
