Questions

How big is the Kicad Project PCB?

It measures 204 × 111 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Kicad Project use?

134 parts, built around the 74HC595. 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 Kicad Project KiCad files?

From the Pl0p/Gate_O_Matix repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Kicad_Project/Main_board.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Kicad Project design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the CC0-1.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
