Questions

How big is the CpNode IOX PCB?

It measures 110 × 68.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the CpNode IOX use?

114 parts, built around the 74HC4511D, BAT54A and LM78M05CH. 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 CpNode IOX KiCad files?

From the plocher/cpNode-IOX repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is cpNode-IOX.kicad_pcb and its schematic cpNode-IOX.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the CpNode IOX design in my own project?

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