Questions

How big is the Digital flasher unit PCB?

It measures 34.5 × 16.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Digital flasher unit use?

11 parts, built around the NE555P and IRLZ44N. 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 Digital flasher unit KiCad files?

From the Madarakante/digital-flasher-unit repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Digital Flasher Unit.kicad_pcb and its schematic Digital Flasher Unit.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Digital flasher unit design in my own project?

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