Questions

How big is the PixelWave PCB?

It measures 299 × 82.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the PixelWave use?

663 parts, built around the ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N8, XL4016E1, HT7533-1 and SK6812. 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 PixelWave KiCad files?

From the Badbird5907/PixelWave repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/PixelWave.kicad_pcb and its schematic PCB/PixelWave.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the PixelWave design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Badbird5907 before reusing the design.
