Questions
How big is the SwitchDualShockAdapter PCB?
It measures 54.6 × 48.3 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the SwitchDualShockAdapter use?
30 parts, built around the ATMEGA8A-PU. 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 SwitchDualShockAdapter KiCad files?
From the th-in-gs/SwitchDualShockAdapter repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/SwitchDualShockAdapter/SwitchDualShockAdapter.kicad_pcb and its schematic hardware/SwitchDualShockAdapter/SwitchDualShockAdapter.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the SwitchDualShockAdapter design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the GPL-2.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
