Overview
PistonEncoder is an open-source printed circuit board by stefanhepp, from the stefanhepp/eOrgan repository on GitHub, published under the CC-BY-SA-4.0 licence. It is a 2-layer board of 150 × 100 mm with 32 parts on 77 nets, routed with 406 tracks and 44 vias.
It is built around the ATMEGA48-20PI, TBD62783APG and ULN2803A, with the BC547 among its other parts. Its parts include 8 connectors, 6 diodes, 5 ICs, 4 capacitors and 1 resistor. It belongs with the AVR (ATmega, ATtiny) boards of this library.

README
README.mdREADME
This project contains various parts of a midi-organ. The project consists of four main parts:
- The Pedalboard: a 29 note midi foot pedal, mostly ARGO compliant. This odd number of notes was choosen because of size restrictions (I wanted it to fit under my e-piano).
- The organ console: contains stops, a lcd display, and all connectors and hardware to wire it to a PC. Up to three midi keyboards can be used as input devices, as well as the midi pedalboard.
- The organ desk: a framework for all the parts, contains speakers and some additional foot-stops. This is also designed to hold the PC.
- The software: A controller software which allows access to some special features of the hardware and sets up the software synthesizer.

Questions
How big is the PistonEncoder PCB?
It measures 150 × 100 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the PistonEncoder use?
32 parts, built around the ATMEGA48-20PI, TBD62783APG, ULN2803A and BC547. 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 PistonEncoder KiCad files?
From the stefanhepp/eOrgan repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is boards/PistonEncoder/PistonEncoder.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the PistonEncoder design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the CC-BY-SA-4.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
