Questions

How big is the Siemens PCB?

It measures 75 × 100 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Siemens use?

112 parts, built around the BCX56. 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 Siemens KiCad files?

From the greyboxaudio/SIAM-295b repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is SIAM-295b/ClassA/siemens/siemens.kicad_pcb and its schematic SIAM-295b/ClassA/siemens/siemens.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Siemens 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).
