Questions
How big is the Undeadsplit PCB?
It measures 356.8 × 105 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Undeadsplit use?
181 parts, built around the ATMEGA32U4-AU. 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 Undeadsplit KiCad files?
From the chrisduerr/undeadsplit repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/undead_split.kicad_pcb and its schematic pcb/undead_split.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Undeadsplit design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask chrisduerr before reusing the design.
