Questions
How big is the Frx PCB?
It measures 60 × 40 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.56 mm thick.
What parts does the Frx use?
106 parts, built around the PGA-105+, PAT1220-C-3DB-T5, AD8363ACPZ-R7 and F1958NBGK. 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 Frx KiCad files?
From the EIGSEP/CAD repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is schematics_PCBs/rfof-frx/frx.kicad_pcb and its schematic schematics_PCBs/balun_screwboard/balun_screwboard.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Frx design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask EIGSEP before reusing the design.
