Questions

How big is the RAM2E PCB?

It measures 78.2 × 50 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the RAM2E use?

63 parts, built around the EPM240T100C3, 74AHC245D, 74AHCT245D and 74LVC245AD. 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 RAM2E KiCad files?

From the ozw1z5rd/RAM2E repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is RAM2E.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the RAM2E design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask ozw1z5rd before reusing the design.
