Questions

How big is the Kbd PCB?

It measures 86.4 × 67.3 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Kbd use?

18 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 Kbd KiCad files?

From the snibo13/Brevis repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is kbd.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Kbd design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask snibo13 before reusing the design.
