Questions
How big is the Module PCB?
It measures 47.6 × 220.4 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Module use?
124 parts, built around the MCP6002-I/P, MCP6004-E/P, LM4040C10ILP and BAT54S. 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 Module KiCad files?
From the zlosynth/proton repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/Module.kicad_pcb and its schematic hardware/Module.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Module design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask zlosynth before reusing the design.
