Questions

How big is the Sobek PCB?

It measures 222.6 × 67.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Sobek use?

105 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 Sobek KiCad files?

From the snark013/sobek repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/sobek.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Sobek design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the CC0-1.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
