Questions

How big is the NanoExpander v11 PCB?

It measures 60 × 71 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the NanoExpander v11 use?

38 parts, built around the BSS138. 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 NanoExpander v11 KiCad files?

From the id-studiolab/NanoExpander repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is nanoExpander_v11/nanoExpander_v11.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the NanoExpander v11 design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the CC-BY-4.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
