Questions
How big is the Mech PCB?
It measures 145 × 50 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Mech use?
54 parts, built around the PCA9685PW. 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 Mech KiCad files?
From the simle-stardust/PCB repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is mech/mech.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Mech 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).
