Questions

How big is the Pll chip PCB?

It measures 60 × 50 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Pll chip use?

59 parts, built around the CD4148WTP, BC846 and BC857. 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 Pll chip KiCad files?

From the TofTo23/pll_pcb repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pll_chip.kicad_pcb and its schematic pll_chip.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Pll chip design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask TofTo23 before reusing the design.
