Questions

How big is the Potreus PCB?

It measures 285 × 94.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Potreus use?

108 parts. 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 Potreus KiCad files?

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

Can I use the Potreus design in my own project?

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