Questions

How big is the Load pcb PCB?

It measures 123.2 × 128.3 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Load pcb use?

41 parts, built around the LM358, 1N4733A and BC846BPDW1. 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 Load pcb KiCad files?

From the sq7rai/pbl_utils_PCB repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is load_pcb.kicad_pcb and its schematic load_pcb.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

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

Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
