Questions
How big is the Matrix game PCB?
It measures 100 × 100 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Matrix game use?
17 parts, built around the MAX7219M. 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 Matrix game KiCad files?
From the GWF-AG/matrix-game repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/matrix-game.kicad_pcb and its schematic hardware/matrix-game.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Matrix game design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask GWF-AG before reusing the design.
