Questions
How big is the ArduinoMegaShield PCB?
It measures 109.2 × 81.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the ArduinoMegaShield use?
41 parts, built around the A4988 and DB15. 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 ArduinoMegaShield KiCad files?
From the AlanFord/ArduinoMega6axis repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/ArduinoMegaShield.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the ArduinoMegaShield design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask AlanFord before reusing the design.
