Questions
How big is the Class d amplifier PCB?
It measures 79.5 × 58.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Class d amplifier use?
40 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 Class d amplifier KiCad files?
From the pdvr99/class_d_amplifier repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is class_d_amplifier.kicad_pcb and its schematic class_d_amplifier.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Class d amplifier design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask pdvr99 before reusing the design.
