Questions
How big is the Fate PCB?
It measures 130 × 115 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Fate use?
33 parts, built around the PMEG2010AEB. 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 Fate KiCad files?
From the hasenbanck/fate repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/fate.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Fate design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask hasenbanck before reusing the design.
