Questions
How big is the GBOY04 PCB?
It measures 85 × 91.3 mm and has 2 copper layers, 0.8 mm thick.
What parts does the GBOY04 use?
19 parts, built around the 74HC14. 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 GBOY04 KiCad files?
From the RWeick/Gameboy-Game-Genie repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is GBOY04.kicad_pcb and its schematic GBOY04.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the GBOY04 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).
