README

logos-templates-tools/PC104Layout/README.md

Template for PC104 to use for the boards. Keep in mind that the four holes on the board are througholes and it is important that all of the boards have the same distance for their throughole parts.

We should also adhere to having 2.54mm headers that are spaced at a certain (non-disclosed) distance from any holes

Questions

How big is the BOBPrototype PCB?

It measures 91.3 × 90.3 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the BOBPrototype use?

9 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 BOBPrototype KiCad files?

From the UChicago-Space-Program/pulse-hardware repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is logos-templates-tools/BreakoutBoard/BOBPrototype.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the BOBPrototype design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask UChicago-Space-Program before reusing the design.
