Questions

How big is the Syldra PCB?

It measures 38 × 38 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Syldra use?

87 parts, built around the NRF52840-QIAA-R, BME280, NPM1300-QEAA-R7 and MBR0530. 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 Syldra KiCad files?

From the ambraglow/syldra repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is syldra.kicad_pcb and its schematic syldra.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Syldra design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the CERN-OHL-W-2.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
