Questions
How big is the Picostation pcb PCB?
It measures 55.9 × 83.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Picostation pcb use?
17 parts. 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 Picostation pcb KiCad files?
From the paulocode/picostation_pcb repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is picostation_pcb.kicad_pcb and its schematic picostation_pcb.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Picostation pcb design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the CERN-OHL-P-2.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
