Questions

How big is the TheThing addon PCB?

It measures 75.2 × 29.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the TheThing addon use?

44 parts, built around the PS1240P02BT, HC-SR04 and KSP2222ABU. 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 TheThing addon KiCad files?

From the MakersAsylumIndia/Arcade repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware_PCB/TheThing_v7/TheThing_addon.kicad_pcb and its schematic hardware_PCB/TheThing_v7/TheThing.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the TheThing addon design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
