Solar Cell PCB

For my ELEN433 - Optoelectronics class I created a simple PCB to house a solar cell and provide easy breakout terminals and common functionality. This will be used in a lab setting for students to easily interface with the solar cell. This is also a project for earning honors credit for this course.

Questions

How big is the Elen433 honors solar cell project PCB?

It measures 34 × 53.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Elen433 honors solar cell project use?

6 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 Elen433 honors solar cell project KiCad files?

From the Ymit24/Solar-Cell-PCB repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is elen433_honors_solar_cell_project.kicad_pcb and its schematic elen433_honors_solar_cell_project.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Elen433 honors solar cell project design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Ymit24 before reusing the design.
