Two Bulb Blinker PCB — First Ever Soldered Project

Project Description

This is my first PCB project ever! I built a simple two-bulb blinker with a small delay, using only transistors and capacitors — no microcontrollers!

The LEDs blink alternately with a delay, controlled purely by electronic components.

Questions

How big is the Toggler PCB?

It measures 127 × 112.7 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Toggler use?

11 parts. 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 Toggler KiCad files?

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

Can I use the Toggler design in my own project?

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