Thanks so much to PCBWay who offered to assemble my first prototype batch of all three uPLC modules. They deliver awesome quality as always, see the result for yourself below.
I now have two prototypes of the uPLC-Digital so ESP-Home integrations will come soon.
ESP micro PLC the size of a post stamp.
The uPLC-digital version is an ESP-32-C3 wifi, bluetooth module for communication and MCU, it has a 3.8-24V buck regulator, has three 2.5-25V inputs, three 2.5-25v 100ma high speed open drain outputs through a TBD062003 DMOS transistor array ic. And one protected 3.3v GPIO for onwire communication (Eg for DS18b20 sensors). The digital version allso has input voltage monitoring for battery applications.
The HO HI ports can be configured to be inputs or outputs by jumping solder bridges one each side of the IC. By default 1-3 are outputs and 4-6 are inputs.

Questions
How big is the UPLC Digital PCB?
It measures 31.4 × 22 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the UPLC Digital use?
64 parts, built around the ESP32-C3-WROOM-02-N4, AP63201WU, TBD62003AFWG and RTT02000JTH. 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 UPLC Digital KiCad files?
From the fredriknk/uPLC-Digital repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is CAD/uplc-digital/uplc-digital.kicad_pcb and its schematic CAD/uplc-digital/uplc-digital.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the UPLC Digital design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
