Questions

How big is the Tessen PCB?

It measures 255.2 × 106.9 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Tessen use?

127 parts, built around the SK6812MINI-E. 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 Tessen KiCad files?

From the Koumbaya/Tessen repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is tessen/tessen.kicad_pcb and its schematic bottom/bottom.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Tessen design in my own project?

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