Questions

How big is the Chainable halfdigit controller PCB?

It measures 100 × 40 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Chainable halfdigit controller use?

12 parts, built around the NRF24L01. 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 Chainable halfdigit controller KiCad files?

From the I-Grebot/elec_chainable_halfdigit_controller repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is elec/chainable_halfdigit_controller.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Chainable halfdigit controller design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask I-Grebot before reusing the design.
