Questions
How big is the MAXCON zero PCB?
It measures 195.3 × 107.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the MAXCON zero use?
27 parts, built around the RP2040-ZERO. 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 MAXCON zero KiCad files?
From the ThunderrGodd/DJMAXCON repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/v2/pcb/MAXCON-zero.kicad_pcb and its schematic pcb/v1/pcb/MAXCON-zero.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the MAXCON zero design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask ThunderrGodd before reusing the design.
