Questions
How big is the DC801 Shield PCB?
It measures 53.4 × 68.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the DC801 Shield use?
135 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 DC801 Shield KiCad files?
From the hamster/classroom repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Firmware102/Hardware/DC801 Shield/DC801 Shield.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the DC801 Shield design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
