Questions

How big is the Synth PCB?

It measures 153.6 × 153.9 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Synth use?

69 parts, built around the MCP6002-I/P, MCP6004-E/P and SE555P. 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 Synth KiCad files?

From the DJ027X/simple_synth repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is synth/synth.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Synth design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
