Questions

How big is the Receiver breakout PCB?

It measures 36 × 36 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Receiver breakout use?

44 parts, built around the 74AHC2G125DP, 74LS86, TLV70233DBV and SN74LVC1G58DCK. 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 Receiver breakout KiCad files?

From the chickadee-tech/rcvr-bo repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/receiver-breakout.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Receiver breakout design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the CC-BY-4.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
