Questions

How big is the GeneralMCU PCB?

It measures 30 × 80 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the GeneralMCU use?

96 parts, built around the P78E05-1000, SN65HVD230D, DS18B20 and WS2812B. 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 GeneralMCU KiCad files?

From the ParadigmHyperloop/comp5-electrical repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is GeneralMCU/noncast_temp_pcbs/GeneralMCU.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the GeneralMCU design in my own project?

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