Questions
How big is the Audio Power Meter PCB?
It measures 32 × 70 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Audio Power Meter use?
23 parts, built around the LM3915. 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 Audio Power Meter KiCad files?
From the jjrh/LM3915_audio repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Audio_Power_Meter.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Audio Power Meter design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
