Questions
How big is the Distro PCB?
It measures 127 × 42 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Distro use?
18 parts, built around the DF005S. 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 Distro KiCad files?
From the tpowell11/SIF repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is electronics/distro/distro.kicad_pcb and its schematic electronics/distro/distro.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Distro design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask tpowell11 before reusing the design.
