Questions

How big is the Polykit x inputboard PCB?

It measures 50 × 160 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Polykit x inputboard use?

80 parts, built around the MCP3428-E/SL and BAS85. 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 Polykit x inputboard KiCad files?

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

Can I use the Polykit x inputboard design in my own project?

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