Questions

How big is the Steuerplatine PCB?

It measures 200 × 60.1 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Steuerplatine use?

71 parts, built around the ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N8, 74HC595 and DS3231MZ+. 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 Steuerplatine KiCad files?

From the Der-Kai-T/Lixie-Clock repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is KiCad/Steuerplatine/Steuerplatine.kicad_pcb and its schematic KiCad/Steuerplatine/Steuerplatine.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Steuerplatine design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Der-Kai-T before reusing the design.
