Questions
How big is the Macro pad PCB?
It measures 92 × 94.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Macro pad use?
26 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 Macro pad KiCad files?
From the CarbonLattice/test-pcb repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/version0.1/macro-pad.kicad_pcb and its schematic hardware/version0.1/macro-pad.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Macro pad design in my own project?
