Questions

How big is the Pi hat LoRa PCB?

It measures 65 × 56 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Pi hat LoRa use?

80 parts, built around the ADS1115IDGSR, MT3540, AMS1117-3.3 and CN3163. 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 Pi hat LoRa KiCad files?

From the Doenec/pi-hat repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Pi hat LoRa/Pi hat LoRa.kicad_pcb and its schematic Pi hat LoRa/Pi hat LoRa.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Pi hat LoRa design in my own project?

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