Questions

How big is the Phoenix PCB?

It measures 80 × 35 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Phoenix use?

29 parts, built around the TEENSY 4.1 and BMP280. 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 Phoenix KiCad files?

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

Can I use the Phoenix design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
