Overview
Bustermination is an open-source printed circuit board by Synthron, from the Synthron/ModLab repository on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board of 160 × 100 mm with 20 parts on 37 nets, routed with 89 tracks and 0 vias.
It is built around the P6SMB16 and SMAJ5.0AJ. Its parts include 8 diodes, 6 resistors, 4 capacitors and 2 connectors.

A modular station for your electronic workbench
The ModLab is designed to be housed in a 19" Rack with 3U.
It is the improved version of the (failed) Arduino Workstation I built a long time ago.
But now It will be bigger, better and way too complicated.

Questions
How big is the Bustermination PCB?
It measures 160 × 100 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Bustermination use?
20 parts, built around the P6SMB16 and SMAJ5.0AJ. 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 Bustermination KiCad files?
From the Synthron/ModLab repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Hardware/V3/Bustermination/Bustermination.kicad_pcb and its schematic Hardware/V3/Bustermination/Bustermination.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Bustermination design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Synthron before reusing the design.
