Questions
How big is the SimonShield PCB?
It measures 68.6 × 53.3 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the SimonShield use?
41 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 SimonShield KiCad files?
From the hotwolf/SimonShield repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Hardware/RevA/KiCad/SimonShield.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the SimonShield design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask hotwolf before reusing the design.
