Questions

How big is the Open duck mini hat PCB?

It measures 30 × 65 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Open duck mini hat use?

19 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 Open duck mini hat KiCad files?

From the blublear/open-duck-mini-hat repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is openduckminihat.kicad_pcb and its schematic openduckminihat.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Open duck mini hat 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).
