Questions
How big is the Simpleswitchpanel PCB?
It measures 160 × 60 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Simpleswitchpanel use?
49 parts, built around the B13AB. 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 Simpleswitchpanel KiCad files?
From the lfg-seth/SunglassSwitchPanel repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/pcba/simpleswitchpanel/simpleswitchpanel.kicad_pcb and its schematic hardware/pcba/pcm/MCU.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Simpleswitchpanel design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask lfg-seth before reusing the design.
