Questions
How big is the Triple 555 PCB?
It measures 51.5 × 41 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Triple 555 use?
25 parts, built around the NA555P. 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 Triple 555 KiCad files?
From the sdp8483/pl_test_pcb repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is triple_555/triple_555.kicad_pcb and its schematic LGS5145/pcb/lgs5145_dcdc.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Triple 555 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).
