Questions
How big is the Voice board PCB?
It measures 83.8 × 72.4 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Voice board use?
131 parts, built around the LM324, MCP4822-E/P, BC557 and BC547. 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 Voice board KiCad files?
From the Windfisch/analog-synth repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/voice_board/voice_board.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Voice board 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).
