Questions

How big is the Bat preamp PCB?

It measures 54.4 × 39.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Bat preamp use?

38 parts, built around the LM324AD, LM321 and MMBT3904. 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 Bat preamp KiCad files?

From the BIST-Research/batbot-hardware repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is batbot6.5-preamp/bat_preamp.kicad_pcb and its schematic batbot6.5-mainboard/bboard.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Bat preamp 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).
