Versions

v0.3 - Fixed LED clearance issue
  • To address LED clearance issues, I moved the LEDs to be mounted to the back, facing down, such that the LED shines through a hole on the board.

v0.2 - Initial release
  • First working version
  • ISSUE: The LEDs were preventing the jacks from going in completly. The module still works but it might cause problems in the future.

Questions

How big is the MiniDiv PCB?

It measures 65 × 128.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the MiniDiv use?

75 parts, built around the LM358 and CD4040BNSR. 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 MiniDiv KiCad files?

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

Can I use the MiniDiv design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the CC-BY-SA-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).
