Questions
How big is the FrontPanel PCB?
It measures 169.9 × 100 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the FrontPanel use?
42 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 FrontPanel KiCad files?
From the w4kpm/TrackerReplacement repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is KiCad/TrackerFrontPanel/FrontPanel.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the FrontPanel design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask w4kpm before reusing the design.
