Questions
How big is the Rfid uhf wifi reader PCB?
It measures 50 × 50 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Rfid uhf wifi reader use?
23 parts, built around the CH340C, ESP32-WROOM-32, AMS1117-3.3 and BSS138. 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 Rfid uhf wifi reader KiCad files?
From the OpenLaundry/wifi-rfid-uhf-reader repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is v2/pcb/rfid-uhf-wifi-reader/rfid-uhf-wifi-reader.kicad_pcb and its schematic v2/pcb/rfid-uhf-wifi-reader/rfid-uhf-wifi-reader.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Rfid uhf wifi reader design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask OpenLaundry before reusing the design.
