Questions
How big is the Passives PCB?
It measures 100 × 20 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.59 mm thick.
What parts does the Passives use?
59 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 Passives KiCad files?
From the greatscottgadgets/misc repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is evaluation-boards/passives/passives.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Passives design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the GPL-2.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
