Questions

How big is the Switchpanel PCB?

It measures 160 × 60 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Switchpanel use?

107 parts, built around the RP2040, W25Q128JVPIQ, MCP251863-E/SS and AMS1117-3.3. 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 Switchpanel KiCad files?

From the lfg-seth/SunglassSwitchPanel repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/pcba/switchpanel/Switchpanel.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 Switchpanel design in my own project?

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