Overview

Spotistation pcb is an open-source printed circuit board by NemoAndrea, from the NemoAndrea/SpotiStation repository on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board of 65 × 23 mm with 13 parts on 32 nets, routed with 164 tracks and 0 vias.

README

pcb/README.md

SpotiStation shim PCB

This a simple PCB that minimises the spaghetti inside the SpotiStation enclosure. It should be fairly cheap to have it manufactured (less than 6 euros at Aisler) with the most basic options.

Edge.cuts

Board outline is specified in edge-cuts.dxf which is generated from the FreeCAD file edge-cuts.FCStd file using the 'new' dxf export.

To import it (or modified versions) to kicad, do the following:

  1. Open PCB editor
  2. File > Import > Graphics
  3. Select the edge-cuts.dxf file
  4. Placement: at X=150.82 Y=106.32. Make sure to import to the edge.cuts layer and keep the scale to 1. Line width can be chosen at random; 0.1mm is fine.

Questions

How big is the Spotistation pcb PCB?

It measures 65 × 23 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Spotistation pcb use?

13 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 Spotistation pcb KiCad files?

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

Can I use the Spotistation pcb design in my own project?

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