Questions
How big is the Raspberry to Caetla PCB?
It measures 65 × 30 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Raspberry to Caetla use?
22 parts, built around the 74LVC1G125 and 74HCT541D. 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 Raspberry to Caetla KiCad files?
From the JaCzekanski/Raspberry-to-Caetla repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is raspberry-to-caetla.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Raspberry to Caetla design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask JaCzekanski before reusing the design.
