This keychain have a NFC chip and a LED. It act as a RFID tag, which use NFC tools to program the NFC chip.
Features:
- RFID tag to carry url
- LED for glowing effect

Questions
How big is the LEDKeychain PCB?
It measures 21.6 × 33.4 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.29 mm thick.
What parts does the LEDKeychain use?
69 parts. 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 LEDKeychain KiCad files?
From the LizOnAir/PCB-Keychain repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/LEDKeychain.kicad_pcb and its schematic PCB/LEDKeychain.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the LEDKeychain design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask LizOnAir before reusing the design.
