Questions
How big is the Video Touch Pad PCB?
It measures 69 × 100 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Video Touch Pad use?
19 parts, built around the MX1A-11NW. 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 Video Touch Pad KiCad files?
From the BrettHallen/Atari repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Video_Touch_Pad/Kicad/Video_Touch_Pad.kicad_pcb and its schematic Joypad_Two_Button/RightHanded/RevA/Atari_Joypad_2_Button.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Video Touch Pad design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask BrettHallen before reusing the design.
