Questions
How big is the Detector PCB?
It measures 43 × 43 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Detector use?
27 parts, built around the MMBD452L. 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 Detector KiCad files?
From the HB9UF/rf_detector repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is detector.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Detector design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask HB9UF before reusing the design.
