Questions

How big is the Esp12f base PCB?

It measures 31 × 34 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Esp12f base use?

21 parts, built around the LSM303C, TS4231 and VBPW34FASR. 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 Esp12f base KiCad files?

From the cnlohr/esptracker repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is esp12f_base/esp12f_base.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Esp12f base 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).
