Questions

How big is the Motherboard PCB?

It measures 153 × 37 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Motherboard use?

9 parts. 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 Motherboard KiCad files?

From the theacodes/model-m repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/motherboard/motherboard.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Motherboard design in my own project?

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