Questions
How big is the Led tester PCB?
It measures 38.8 × 44.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Led tester use?
37 parts, built around the LMV358, PCF8591T/2 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 Led tester KiCad files?
From the CapnKernel/led-tester repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is led-tester.kicad_pcb and its schematic led-tester.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Led tester 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).
