Questions

How big is the Pathfinder PCB?

It measures 57.2 × 44 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Pathfinder use?

18 parts, built around the PTA6043-2015CPB103. 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 Pathfinder KiCad files?

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

Can I use the Pathfinder design in my own project?

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