Questions
How big is the KC65Clone PCB?
It measures 304.5 × 95 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the KC65Clone use?
163 parts, built around the SKQGABE010. 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 KC65Clone KiCad files?
From the ThunderrGodd/KeyCult65ClonePCB repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Kicad Files/KC65Clone.kicad_pcb and its schematic Kicad Files/KC65Clone.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the KC65Clone 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).
