Questions

How big is the 555clock PCB?

It measures 101 × 62 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the 555clock use?

39 parts, built around the NE555P. 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 555clock KiCad files?

From the t-shoode/555clock repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is 555clock.kicad_pcb and its schematic 555clock.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the 555clock design in my own project?

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