Questions

How big is the VLT PCB?

It measures 310 × 123 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the VLT use?

426 parts, built around the MPR121QR2, USB3300-EZK, W25Q128JVSIQ and W25Q32JVZPIQ. 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 VLT KiCad files?

From the Charading/VLT repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is VLT.kicad_pcb and its schematic VLT.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the VLT design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Charading before reusing the design.
