Questions

How big is the Sendai PCB?

It measures 362 × 95.3 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Sendai use?

269 parts, built around the ATMEGA32U4 and MMBT3904. 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 Sendai KiCad files?

From the bilger321/sendai-keyboard repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Sendai.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Sendai design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask bilger321 before reusing the design.
