Questions
How big is the RPi Rail PCB?
It measures 65 × 56.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the RPi Rail use?
40 parts, built around the MCP2562FD-E/P, MCP2517FD-H/SL and P82B715D. 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 RPi Rail KiCad files?
From the GBert/misc repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is RPi-Rail/RPi-Rail.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the RPi Rail design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask GBert before reusing the design.
