Questions

How big is the MicroBaro Core PCB?

It measures 26 × 26 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.61 mm thick.

What parts does the MicroBaro Core use?

31 parts, built around the ATSAMD21E16B-MU, BMP390, MSD-4-A and BMI270. 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 MicroBaro Core KiCad files?

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

Can I use the MicroBaro Core design in my own project?

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