Questions
How big is the Strikes PCB?
It measures 54 × 35 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Strikes use?
25 parts, built around the TLC59281DBQ and AD5272BRMZ-50. 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 Strikes KiCad files?
From the melair/ktane repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/Others/Strikes/Strikes.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Strikes design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask melair before reusing the design.
