Questions
How big is the SuperButtonX3 PCB?
It measures 105.6 × 53.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the SuperButtonX3 use?
29 parts, built around the CH552G. 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 SuperButtonX3 KiCad files?
From the FRC-1721/SuperButton repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Hardware/SuperButtonX3/SuperButtonX3.kicad_pcb and its schematic Hardware/SuperButtonX1/SuperButtonX1.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the SuperButtonX3 design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the BSD-2-Clause licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
