Questions
How big is the SixnavPrototype PCB?
It measures 66 × 114.3 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the SixnavPrototype use?
38 parts, built around the CD4051BE, IR908-7C-F and PT908-7C-F. 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 SixnavPrototype KiCad files?
From the GreenCappuccino/SixnavPrototype repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is src/ecad/SixnavPrototype.kicad_pcb and its schematic src/ecad/SixnavPrototype.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the SixnavPrototype design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask GreenCappuccino before reusing the design.
