Questions

How big is the Sustainer PCB?

It measures 99.9 × 93.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Sustainer use?

88 parts, built around the LM358, LM386 and NE555. 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 Sustainer KiCad files?

From the knuthelgesen/Sustainer repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Sustainer.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Sustainer design in my own project?

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