Questions

How big is the 8x1 ext PCB?

It measures 100 × 19 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the 8x1 ext use?

42 parts, built around the CH340E, 74HC595 and TS5A23159DGSR. 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 8x1 ext KiCad files?

From the McbeEringi/pcb-stuff repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is proj/light/7seg/8x1_ext/8x1_ext.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the 8x1 ext design in my own project?

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