Questions

How big is the Neopixel network PCB?

It measures 36.8 × 2.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Neopixel network use?

19 parts, built around the SN65176BDR-TD and SK6812. 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 Neopixel network KiCad files?

From the dfuchslin/esp8266-neopixel-control repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/neopixel-network.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Neopixel network design in my own project?

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