Questions
How big is the LED Cube MK3 PCB?
It measures 50 × 50 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the LED Cube MK3 use?
32 parts, built around the 74HC595. 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 LED Cube MK3 KiCad files?
From the Binary-Kitchen/LED-cube-programmable repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is LED-Cube_MK3.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the LED Cube MK3 design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Binary-Kitchen before reusing the design.
