Questions

How big is the Back PCB?

It measures 58.1 × 81.9 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Back use?

13 parts, built around the NE555P. 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 Back KiCad files?

From the vinith555/PCBway_Project repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is backlayer/Back.kicad_pcb and its schematic backlayer/Back.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Back design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask vinith555 before reusing the design.
