Questions
How big is the Joshua PCB?
It measures 121 × 70.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Joshua use?
58 parts, built around the ATMEGA328P-AU, ATTINY85-20SU, TSOP38238 and ABM3B-12.000MHZ-B2-T. 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 Joshua KiCad files?
From the thepolymatt/joshua repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is kicad/joshua/joshua.kicad_pcb and its schematic kicad/joshua/joshua.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Joshua design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask thepolymatt before reusing the design.
