Questions
How big is the UEXT-3TO5V Rev A PCB?
It measures 50 × 23 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.58 mm thick.
What parts does the UEXT-3TO5V Rev A use?
41 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 UEXT-3TO5V Rev A KiCad files?
From the OLIMEX/UEXT-3TO5V repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is HARDWARE/UEXT-3TO5V-Rev.A/UEXT-3TO5V_Rev_A.kicad_pcb and its schematic HARDWARE/UEXT-3TO5V-Rev.A/UEXT-3TO5V_Rev_A.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the UEXT-3TO5V Rev A design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask OLIMEX before reusing the design.
