Questions
How big is the Silver PCB?
It measures 69 × 31 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Silver use?
96 parts, built around the TPS2112APW, TPS22917DBV and PRTR5V0U2X. 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 Silver KiCad files?
From the Foalyy/silver-kicad repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is silver.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Silver 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).
