Questions

How big is the Zxshield PCB?

It measures 130.3 × 78.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Zxshield use?

29 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 Zxshield KiCad files?

From the gusmanb/zxshield repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is ZXShield_Hardware/ZXShield.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Zxshield design in my own project?

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