Questions

How big is the TARC Altimeter PCB?

It measures 67.1 × 14.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the TARC Altimeter use?

20 parts, built around the ATTINY85-20SU and BMP280. 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 TARC Altimeter KiCad files?

From the juansala/TARC-Altimeter repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Project/TARC Altimeter.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the TARC Altimeter design in my own project?

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