Questions

How big is the GameboyLinkMini PCB?

It measures 29.5 × 41.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the GameboyLinkMini use?

14 parts, built around the ATTINY2313-20SU and DS1307Z+. 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 GameboyLinkMini KiCad files?

From the AlanFromJapan/pcb-design repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is GameboyLinkMini/GameboyLinkMini.kicad_pcb and its schematic BPi2m-Ethernet/BPi2m-Ethernet.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the GameboyLinkMini design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
