Questions

How big is the Solo2 PCB?

It measures 23.4 × 12 mm and has 4 copper layers, 0.8 mm thick.

What parts does the Solo2 use?

41 parts, built around the LPC55S69JEV98K, FM11NC08I, GD25Q16CEIGR and FSUSB42MUX. 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 Solo2 KiCad files?

From the solokeys/solo2-hw repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is solo2.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Solo2 design in my own project?

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