Questions

How big is the Starter pcb PCB?

It measures 229.2 × 76.3 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Starter pcb use?

7 parts. 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 Starter pcb KiCad files?

From the boardsource/open-files repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Tecknik/pcb/starter-pcb.kicad_pcb and its schematic Tecknik/5x12/5x12-plate/5x12-plate.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Starter pcb design in my own project?

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