Questions

How big is the Corne chocolate PCB?

It measures 277.2 × 107.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Corne chocolate use?

180 parts, built around the RP2040, W25Q128JVSIQ, TS-1088R-02026 and 1N4148WT. 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 Corne chocolate KiCad files?

From the JackUlbrichBaker/Split_keyboard repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/v1.0/corne-chocolate.kicad_pcb and its schematic hardware/v1.0/corne-chocolate.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Corne chocolate design in my own project?

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