Questions

How big is the Filter PCB?

It measures 100 × 100 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Filter use?

81 parts, built around the MCP23008-E/P and ULN2803A. 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 Filter KiCad files?

From the profdc9/ModularTuner repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Tuner/Filter/Filter.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Filter design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask profdc9 before reusing the design.
