Experiments with flip-dot display
FlipDot34-Nano OneSide is an open-source printed circuit board by cazacov, from the cazacov/FlipDot repository on GitHub, published under the MIT licence. It is a 2-layer board of 80 × 59.7 mm with 17 parts on 59 nets, routed with 205 tracks and 20 vias.
It is built around the 74HC595. Its parts include 5 capacitors, 3 ICs, 3 connectors, 1 diode and 1 switch. It belongs with the AVR (ATmega, ATtiny) boards of this library.

17 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.
From the cazacov/FlipDot repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is MatrixControllers/FlipDot34Nano/OneSidePTH/KiCad/FlipDot34-Nano-OneSide.kicad_pcb and its schematic Hardware/RS-422 Brose VM_IIC/KiCad/RS-422-Controller/RS-422-Controller.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
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).
