Questions
How big is the Lcr addon PCB?
It measures 85.1 × 55.1 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Lcr addon use?
23 parts, built around the LM2596T-5.0. 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 Lcr addon KiCad files?
From the BadenLab/Open-Visual-Stimulator repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/lcr_add-on/Lcr_addon.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Lcr addon design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
