Questions

How big is the Step switch board PCB?

It measures 217 × 27.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Step switch board use?

85 parts, built around the 74HC165D. 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 Step switch board KiCad files?

From the minisystem/880 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is step_switch_board/step_switch_board.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Step switch board design in my own project?

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