Questions

How big is the Macro pad PCB?

It measures 72 × 110 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Macro pad use?

98 parts, built around the RP2040, W25Q128JVSIQ TR, ABM8-272-T3 and KPESD0603AV5. 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 Macro pad KiCad files?

From the kgalinec/macro-pad repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Macro Pad.kicad_pcb and its schematic Macro Pad.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Macro pad design in my own project?

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