Questions

How big is the Gamepad PCB?

It measures 100 × 50 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.58 mm thick.

What parts does the Gamepad use?

51 parts, built around the USBLC6-2SC6. 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 Gamepad KiCad files?

From the isobchuk/gamepad_hardware repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is gamepad.kicad_pcb and its schematic gamepad.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Gamepad design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the Apache-2.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
