Questions

How big is the Binarykb PCB?

It measures 38.1 × 25.4 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Binarykb use?

18 parts, built around the ATMEGA32U2-MU and PRTR5V0U2X. 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 Binarykb KiCad files?

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

Can I use the Binarykb 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).
