Questions

How big is the Dongle PCB?

It measures 35 × 14 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Dongle use?

39 parts, built around the SN75176BD, MCP601-I/P, USBLC6-2P6 and BAT54SL. 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 Dongle KiCad files?

From the iTeleTram/dongle_hw repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is dongle.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Dongle design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the Apache-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).
