Questions

How big is the Tuxkeychain PCB?

It measures 50 × 60 mm and has 6 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Tuxkeychain use?

56 parts, built around the F1C100S, W25Q128JVSIQ and SMD0805B050TF. 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 Tuxkeychain KiCad files?

From the electron271/tuxkeychain repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is tuxkeychain.kicad_pcb and its schematic expansion.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Tuxkeychain design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the CC-BY-SA-4.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
