Questions

How big is the Universal Taster PCB?

It measures 30 × 30 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Universal Taster use?

59 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 Universal Taster KiCad files?

From the basilfx/KNX-Universal-Taster repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/Universal-Taster/Universal-Taster.kicad_pcb and its schematic pcb/Extensions/DSMR-Connector/DSMR-Connector.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Universal Taster design in my own project?

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