Questions

How big is the ThingPlus PCB?

It measures 58.4 × 22.9 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the ThingPlus use?

11 parts. 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 ThingPlus KiCad files?

From the hlord2000/ThingPlus repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is ThingPlus.kicad_pcb and its schematic ThingPlus.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the ThingPlus design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the CERN-OHL-P-2.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
