Overview
Farpatch Lite is an open-source printed circuit board by farpatch, from the farpatch/hardware-lite repository on GitHub. It is a 4-layer board of 34 × 12.5 mm with 36 parts on 61 nets, routed with 350 tracks and 67 vias.
It is built around the ESP32-S3. Its parts include 14 capacitors, 7 connectors, 4 resistors, 2 ICs and 2 switches. It belongs with the ESP32 boards of this library.

A lite version of Farpatch -- a wireless debugger based on Black Magic Probe.
Differences from the full version
- Farpatch Lite is smaller, and can fit into smaller areas
- There are no level shifters or voltage regulators -- your target MUST run at 3.3V!
- There are no damping resistors, which might affect signal integrity with the target
- There is no separate UART connector -- UART is integrated onto the SWD connector
- There is only one LED on the PCB
Farpatch Lite can be designed as a two-layer PCB, but a four-layer PCB stackup is preferred for signal integrity purposes.

Questions
How big is the Farpatch Lite PCB?
It measures 34 × 12.5 mm and has 4 copper layers, 4.69 mm thick.
What parts does the Farpatch Lite use?
36 parts, built around the ESP32-S3. 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 Farpatch Lite KiCad files?
From the farpatch/hardware-lite repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Farpatch-Lite.kicad_pcb and its schematic Farpatch-Lite.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Farpatch Lite design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask farpatch before reusing the design.
