Questions

How big is the E ink macropad PCB?

It measures 87 × 66 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the E ink macropad use?

77 parts, built around the MBR0530 and SI1308EDL. 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 E ink macropad KiCad files?

From the ArthusPVP/e-ink-macropad repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/e-ink_macropad/e-ink_macropad.kicad_pcb and its schematic PCB/e-ink_macropad/e-ink_macropad.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the E ink macropad design in my own project?

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