Questions

How big is the Smolpad PCB?

It measures 20.4 × 18.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 0.8 mm thick.

What parts does the Smolpad use?

22 parts, built around the ATSAMD21E17D-MU. 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 Smolpad KiCad files?

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

Can I use the Smolpad design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
