Questions
How big is the Calcite60 PCB?
It measures 226 × 94.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Calcite60 use?
196 parts, built around the E73-2G4M08S1C, RT9013-33GB, SRV05-4 and TP4054. 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 Calcite60 KiCad files?
From the siderakb/calcite repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Calcite60/pcb/Calcite60.kicad_pcb and its schematic Calcite52/pcb/Calcite52.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Calcite60 design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the CERN-OHL-P-2.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
