Questions

How big is the GlowCorePanel PCB?

It measures 82.7 × 77.8 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.13 mm thick.

What parts does the GlowCorePanel use?

472 parts, built around the ESP32-S3-MINI-1-N8, AP40P05, AO3400A and SK9822-EC20. 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 GlowCorePanel KiCad files?

From the LEDs-by-glowingkitty/GlowCore repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is GlowCore PCB panel/GlowCorePanel.kicad_pcb and its schematic GlowCore PCB panel/GlowCorePanel.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the GlowCorePanel design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
