Questions

How big is the Layer test PCB?

It measures 116.3 × 163 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Layer test use?

122 parts, built around the ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N8R8, MT3608, AP7361C-33E and MCP73831. 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 Layer test KiCad files?

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

Can I use the Layer test design in my own project?

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