Questions

How big is the Sharp serial PCB?

It measures 53.8 × 30.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Sharp serial use?

6 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 Sharp serial KiCad files?

From the cazacov/PocketComputers repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is sharp-serial/sharp-serial/sharp-serial.kicad_pcb and its schematic casio-pb-1000/RAM-card-RP-32/RP-32/RP-32.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Sharp serial 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).
