Questions

How big is the Nervous sys PCB?

It measures 101.5 × 64 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Nervous sys use?

56 parts, built around the BC237 and BPW85. 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 Nervous sys KiCad files?

From the NERVOUS-System-Project/SNN-Breadboard repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Nervous_sys.kicad_pcb and its schematic Nervous_sys.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Nervous sys design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask NERVOUS-System-Project before reusing the design.
