Questions
How big is the VideoMacPac PCB?
It measures 113 × 69 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the VideoMacPac use?
30 parts, built around the 74AHCT1G00SE, 74F521PC and TPS2030D. 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 VideoMacPac KiCad files?
From the apmcpherson/VideoMacPacHack repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/VideoMacPac/VideoMacPac.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the VideoMacPac design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask apmcpherson before reusing the design.
