Questions

How big is the VFD tool PCB?

It measures 95 × 50 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the VFD tool use?

177 parts, built around the RP2040, FUSB302BMPX, TPS54331DR-JSM and TPS562200DDC. 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 VFD tool KiCad files?

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

Can I use the VFD tool design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
