Questions

How big is the Portapack h1 PCB?

It measures 120 × 75 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Portapack h1 use?

87 parts, built around the 5M40ZE64C5N and NUF4220MN. 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 Portapack h1 KiCad files?

From the arsscriptum/SmartMeter-ReverseEngineering repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Projects/portapack-havoc/hardware/portapack_h1/portapack_h1.kicad_pcb and its schematic pico-puller/adapter_board/pico_adapter.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Portapack h1 design in my own project?

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