Questions

How big is the 4bit adder PCB?

It measures 100.1 × 220.1 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the 4bit adder use?

98 parts. 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 4bit adder KiCad files?

From the tonygilkerson/4bit-adder repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is kicad/4bit-adder/4bit-adder.kicad_pcb and its schematic kicad/4bit-adder/4bit-adder.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the 4bit adder design in my own project?

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