Questions

How big is the OperationBaldr PCB?

It measures 80 × 100 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the OperationBaldr use?

20 parts, built around the 74HC595 and ULN2003A. 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 OperationBaldr KiCad files?

From the Hardware7253/OperationBaldr repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is cad/pcb/OperationBaldr.kicad_pcb and its schematic cad/pcb/OperationBaldr.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the OperationBaldr design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Hardware7253 before reusing the design.
