Questions

How big is the Polybio hex PCB?

It measures 33.7 × 36.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1 mm thick.

What parts does the Polybio hex use?

7 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 Polybio hex KiCad files?

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

Can I use the Polybio hex design in my own project?

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