Questions

How big is the SuperSamFPGA PCB?

It measures 63.2 × 82.3 mm and has 6 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the SuperSamFPGA use?

105 parts, built around the SN74AC17PWRQ1, NCP1529ASN, TXS0104EPW and 74LVC573AD. 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 SuperSamFPGA KiCad files?

From the jimbro1000/SuperSamFPGA repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is SuperSamFPGA.kicad_pcb and its schematic SuperSamFPGA.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the SuperSamFPGA design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask jimbro1000 before reusing the design.
