Questions

How big is the Indicator PCB?

It measures 25.4 × 25.4 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Indicator use?

28 parts, built around the LM2903 and 2SC1815. 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 Indicator KiCad files?

From the vrnambur/Indicator repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Indicator.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Indicator design in my own project?

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