Questions

How big is the Brainspanel PCB?

It measures 300 × 250 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Brainspanel use?

532 parts. 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 Brainspanel KiCad files?

From the MeArm/V1_PCBs repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is MeBrain/brains/brainsPanel/brainspanel.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Brainspanel design in my own project?

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