Questions
How big is the Cbu PCB?
It measures 43.8 × 31.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Cbu use?
53 parts, built around the FT230XS-R, LM1117DT-3.3, AO3416A and BAT43. 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 Cbu KiCad files?
From the 0x007E/cbu repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/CBU.kicad_pcb and its schematic pcb/CBU.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Cbu design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask 0x007E before reusing the design.
