Questions

How big is the Releasebuttonboard PCB?

It measures 99.5 × 56 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Releasebuttonboard use?

34 parts, built around the PAM8407DR and 24C16. 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 Releasebuttonboard KiCad files?

From the apparentlymart/release-button repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/releasebuttonboard.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Releasebuttonboard design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask apparentlymart before reusing the design.
