Questions

How big is the Shield PCB?

It measures 19.8 × 63.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Shield use?

11 parts, built around the RFM69HW. 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 Shield KiCad files?

From the dekiesel/rfm69shield repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is shield/shield.kicad_pcb and its schematic shield/shield.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Shield design in my own project?

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