Questions

How big is the Pocketbeagle PCB?

It measures 55 × 35 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Pocketbeagle use?

50 parts, built around the OSD3358-512M-BSM, SN74LVC1G07DCK, TPD4S012DRY and LTST-C191TBKT. 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 Pocketbeagle KiCad files?

From the beagleboard/pocketbeagle repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is KiCAD/PocketBeagle.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Pocketbeagle design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the CC-BY-4.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
