Motherboard: common questions

How big is the Motherboard PCB?

The Motherboard measures 320 × 378.2 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Motherboard?

167 components, from 22 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 Motherboard design files?

From the FYNCH-BIO/hardware repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Motherboard design in my own project?

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