Questions
How big is the Level Shifter Board PCB?
It measures 40 × 45 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Level Shifter Board use?
10 parts, built around the SN74LVC244AN. 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 Level Shifter Board KiCad files?
From the suidroot/LevelShifter repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Level Shifter Board.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Level Shifter Board design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask suidroot before reusing the design.
