Questions
How big is the Modular Shield PCB?
It measures 65 × 56 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Modular Shield use?
92 parts, built around the MCP3008-I/P. 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 Modular Shield KiCad files?
From the juthomas/Raspberry_pi_modular_shield repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Modular_Shield_kicad/Modular_Shield.kicad_pcb and its schematic Modular_Shield_kicad/Modular_Shield.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Modular Shield design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask juthomas before reusing the design.
