Questions
How big is the Flipclock PCB?
It measures 285.2 × 132.3 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Flipclock use?
222 parts, built around the BAV99. 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 Flipclock KiCad files?
From the pierre-muth/flipdot-ring repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is KICAD/flipclock/flipclock.kicad_pcb and its schematic KICAD/flipclock/flipclock.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Flipclock design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
