Questions

How big is the Mecropad 10x10 PCB?

It measures 77.8 × 77.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.78 mm thick.

What parts does the Mecropad 10x10 use?

206 parts. 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 Mecropad 10x10 KiCad files?

From the backAir/Macropads repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is 10x10/mecropad_10x10 pcb/mecropad_10x10.kicad_pcb and its schematic 10x10/mecropad_10x10 pcb/mecropad_10x10.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Mecropad 10x10 design in my own project?

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