Questions
How big is the Char PCB?
It measures 15.5 × 47.5 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Char use?
60 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 Char KiCad files?
From the jamesmunns/brick-mount repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is boards/char/char.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Char design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask jamesmunns before reusing the design.
