Questions

How big is the Linear MVP3 PCB?

It measures 25.5 × 157.5 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Linear MVP3 use?

43 parts, built around the TCA9555RTWR(UMW). 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 Linear MVP3 KiCad files?

From the borgel/bolton_buttons repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is mvp3/Linear-MVP3/Linear-MVP3.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Linear MVP3 design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the MPL-2.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
