Questions

How big is the 4x3-Macropad PCB?

It measures 90.5 × 79.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the 4x3-Macropad use?

26 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 4x3-Macropad KiCad files?

From the IHateScones/4x3-Macropad repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is 4x3 Macropad.kicad_pcb and its schematic 4x3 Macropad.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the 4x3-Macropad design in my own project?

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