Questions

How big is the Led pcb PCB?

It measures 35.1 × 17.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Led pcb use?

11 parts, built around the VEML6030. 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 Led pcb KiCad files?

From the EmbryoPhenomics/FieldCam repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is electronics/led_pcb/led_pcb.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Led pcb design in my own project?

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