Questions
How big is the Escale PCB?
It measures 100 × 100 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Escale use?
32 parts, built around the PMV75UP. 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 Escale KiCad files?
From the werediver/escale repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is KiCad/eScale.kicad_pcb and its schematic KiCad/eScale.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Escale design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask werediver before reusing the design.
