SynthUx Academy Simple Board Multiplexer Daughterboard

This is a small PCB that is designed to fit on the perfboard section at the bottom right of the Simple Board from SynthUX Academy.

Headers Explained

There are two headers on the board, one 2x8 header accepts all the analog inputs, while the 1x8 header provides connectivity to the Daisy Seed.

Questions

How big is the Takshaka mux board PCB?

It measures 31.6 × 24.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Takshaka mux board use?

12 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 Takshaka mux board KiCad files?

From the wendallsan/simple-multiplexer repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is takshaka-mux-board.kicad_pcb and its schematic takshaka-mux-board.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Takshaka mux board design in my own project?

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