Questions
How big is the Vera module rev2 PCB?
It measures 96.5 × 55 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Vera module rev2 use?
120 parts, built around the ICE40UP5K-SG48ITR50, MAX3221CPWRE4, AP3417CKTR-G1 and THS7314D. 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 Vera module rev2 KiCad files?
From the fvdhoef/vera-module repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/rev2/vera-module-rev2.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Vera module rev2 design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
