Questions

How big is the PIN Radiation Detector PCB?

It measures 68.6 × 31.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the PIN Radiation Detector use?

21 parts, built around the LM358DR, BPW34 and MMBF4392LT1G. 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 PIN Radiation Detector KiCad files?

From the StevenKnudsen/PIN_Radiation_Detector repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PIN_Radiation_Detector/PIN_Radiation_Detector.kicad_pcb and its schematic PIN_Radiation_Detector/PIN_Radiation_Detector.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the PIN Radiation Detector design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask StevenKnudsen before reusing the design.
