Questions
How big is the Filter PCB?
It measures 60.2 × 109.9 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Filter use?
176 parts, built around the LM13700M. 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 Filter KiCad files?
From the microresearch/allcolours repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is filter/filter.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Filter design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask microresearch before reusing the design.
