Questions

How big is the Nixie clock PCB?

It measures 168 × 44 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.59 mm thick.

What parts does the Nixie clock use?

88 parts, built around the TPS62933FDRL, CYPD3177-24LQXQ, DS3234S# and FSMRA4JH04. 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 Nixie clock KiCad files?

From the SpicyHolo/PCB_NixieDivergenceMeter repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/logic/nixie_clock.kicad_pcb and its schematic hardware/logic/nixie_clock-MCU.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Nixie clock design in my own project?

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