Questions

How big is the MiniOSC PCB?

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

What parts does the MiniOSC use?

82 parts, built around the 1N4148W, BC848 and BC858. 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 MiniOSC KiCad files?

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

Can I use the MiniOSC 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).
