Questions

How big is the Left Split PCB?

It measures 172.7 × 96.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Left Split use?

79 parts. 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 Left Split KiCad files?

From the shubhamp2007/Wireless-Split-Keyboard repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/Left/Left_Split.kicad_pcb and its schematic PCB/Left/Left_Split.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Left Split design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask shubhamp2007 before reusing the design.
