Questions

How big is the Macropad pcb PCB?

It measures 83.3 × 57.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Macropad pcb use?

34 parts, built around the ATMEGA32U4-AU. 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 Macropad pcb KiCad files?

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

Can I use the Macropad pcb design in my own project?

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