Questions
How big is the 26proto PCB?
It measures 98.8 × 94 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1 mm thick.
What parts does the 26proto use?
80 parts, built around the MAX3485ED, DS3231MZ/V+ and BNO085. 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 26proto KiCad files?
From the old-bridge/pre-26thDenso repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Kicad/boards/26proto.kicad_pcb and its schematic Kicad/boards/26proto.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the 26proto design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask old-bridge before reusing the design.
