Questions

How big is the Pi hat PCB?

It measures 56 × 65 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Pi hat use?

253 parts, built around the SN74LVC1T45DBVRE4. 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 Pi hat KiCad files?

From the biobotus/pcb_transceiver repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is kicad/pi_hat.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Pi hat design in my own project?

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