Questions

How big is the Board vl6180x PCB?

It measures 45.5 × 19 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Board vl6180x use?

19 parts, built around the LD3985M28R and BSS138. 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 Board vl6180x KiCad files?

From the dodotronix/Sensors repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is vl6180x/pcb/board_vl6180x.kicad_pcb and its schematic vl6180x/pcb/board_vl6180x.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Board vl6180x design in my own project?

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