Questions

How big is the Arkan1 PCB?

It measures 64.3 × 73.3 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.5 mm thick.

What parts does the Arkan1 use?

43 parts, built around the 24LC32A/P, DW01A, TP4056-42-ESOP8 and TPS79133DBVREP. 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 Arkan1 KiCad files?

From the rasthpop/arkan_POC repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is arkan1.kicad_pcb and its schematic arkan1.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Arkan1 design in my own project?

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