Questions

How big is the SWIM Trigger PCB?

It measures 90 × 54.1 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the SWIM Trigger use?

26 parts, built around the VSOP38338 and MMBT2222A-TP. 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 SWIM Trigger KiCad files?

From the aksherap1/swim-electronics repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is SWIM_Trigger/SWIM-Trigger.kicad_pcb and its schematic SWIM_Trigger/SWIM-Trigger.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the SWIM Trigger design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask aksherap1 before reusing the design.
