README
README.mdtamago
tamago is a simple desktop companion. I built it because I thought it seemed like a good entry point into pcb design, without being unnecessarily complex.
Functionality includes date/time, timer, stopwatch, countdown, and noise visualizer which responds to the sounds in your working space (e.g. typing/music). It can also display humidity and temperature of your working space. It's a device that is for the most part single-purpose, meaning it doesn't occupy more of your attention than it needs. THis also helps me stay on focus more.
ps. tamago is japanese for egg

Questions
How big is the Tamago PCB?
It measures 86.3 × 76.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Tamago use?
18 parts, built around the ESP32-C3-MINI-1, DHT11, AP2112K-3.3 and INMP441. 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 Tamago KiCad files?
From the idiot250/tamago repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/tamago.kicad_pcb and its schematic pcb/tamago.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Tamago design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask idiot250 before reusing the design.
