Questions

How big is the RhythmPocket PCB?

It measures 71.5 × 115.4 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the RhythmPocket use?

285 parts, built around the ADP1231, CS43130-CNZ, LM324 and B72590D0050H160. 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 RhythmPocket KiCad files?

From the zephray/RhythmPocket repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/pcb.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the RhythmPocket design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the MPL-2.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
