Questions

How big is the Ram pak PCB?

It measures 29 × 16.7 mm and has 4 copper layers, 0.4 mm thick.

What parts does the Ram pak use?

29 parts, built around the W957D8MFYA5I and TLV62568DBV. 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 Ram pak KiCad files?

From the esden/glasgow-addons repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/ram-pak/ram-pak.kicad_pcb and its schematic hardware/ram-pak/hyperram.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Ram pak design in my own project?

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