Questions
How big is the MainDarkproject PCB?
It measures 57.1 × 75 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the MainDarkproject use?
8 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 MainDarkproject KiCad files?
From the Amagami45/Drawing-macropad repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/MainDarkproject.kicad_pcb and its schematic pcb/MainDarkproject.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the MainDarkproject design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Amagami45 before reusing the design.
