What parts does the Chu arcade use?
46 parts, built around the PCA9548APW. 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 Chu arcade KiCad files?
From the whowechina/chu_arcade repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/main/chu_arcade.kicad_pcb and its schematic PCB/main/chu_arcade.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Chu arcade design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask whowechina before reusing the design.
