Questions

How big is the Ps288 PCB?

It measures 22.9 × 72.4 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Ps288 use?

5 parts. 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 Ps288 KiCad files?

From the ethy1ene/ps288mf repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is sch/ps288.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Ps288 design in my own project?

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