Questions

How big is the Rc duino PCB?

It measures 101.6 × 54.6 mm and has 4 copper layers, 4.69 mm thick.

What parts does the Rc duino use?

35 parts, built around the 74HCT595D and 74HCT688D. 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 Rc duino KiCad files?

From the TomPlano/AVRC-2560 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is kicad_proj/rc-duino.kicad_pcb and its schematic kicad_proj/rc-duino.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Rc duino design in my own project?

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