Questions

How big is the Location PCB?

It measures 15.2 × 12.7 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Location use?

9 parts, built around the SS411P. 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 Location KiCad files?

From the fo-am/patternmatrix2 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/kicad/sensor/location.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Location design in my own project?

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