Questions

How big is the Helmute PCBs PCB?

It measures 138.6 × 102 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Helmute PCBs use?

59 parts, built around the TEENSY 4.1 and SGTL5000XNLA3. 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 Helmute PCBs KiCad files?

From the nmemmolo/Helmute repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCBs/Helmute_PCBs_revA/Helmute_PCBs.kicad_pcb and its schematic PCBs/Helmute_PCBs_revA/Helmute_PCBs.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Helmute PCBs design in my own project?

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