Questions
How big is the Column PCB?
It measures 41.9 × 62.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Column use?
81 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 Column KiCad files?
From the AlaaSaadAbdo/Rommana repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/Column/column.kicad_pcb and its schematic PCB/Column - FFC/column.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Column design in my own project?
