Z parts: common questions

How big is the Z parts PCB?

The Z parts measures 20.7 × 30.2 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Z parts?

14 components, from 8 distinct parts, with part numbers taken from the project's own BOM. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Z parts design files?

From the fl4p/Fugu2 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Z parts design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with fl4p. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
