Questions

How big is the Random trigger PCB?

It measures 49.9 × 100 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Random trigger use?

68 parts. 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 Random trigger KiCad files?

From the mplsartindustry/random-trigger repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is random-trigger.kicad_pcb and its schematic random-trigger.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Random trigger 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).
