Questions
How big is the FPGBA PCB?
It measures 134.4 × 72.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the FPGBA use?
143 parts, built around the XC7S50-L1CSGA324I, TLV62569DBV, W25Q128JVSIQ and IP5306. 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 FPGBA KiCad files?
From the teejaytiger/FPGBA repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is FPGBA.kicad_pcb and its schematic FPGBA.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the FPGBA design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask teejaytiger before reusing the design.
