Questions

How big is the Macropad v2 0 1 PCB?

It measures 70 × 70 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Macropad v2 0 1 use?

20 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 Macropad v2 0 1 KiCad files?

From the gauntface/macropad repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is macropad-v2_0_1/macropad-v2_0_1.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Macropad v2 0 1 design in my own project?

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