Questions
How big is the SBus Decoder PCB?
It measures 84 × 56.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the SBus Decoder use?
120 parts, built around the TSW-104-08-G-T-RA. 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 SBus Decoder KiCad files?
From the bemcgarvey/SBus-Decoder repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Schematic/SBus-Decoder/SBus-Decoder.kicad_pcb and its schematic Schematic/SBus-Decoder/SBus-Decoder.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the SBus Decoder design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
