Questions

How big is the Pcb adapter PCB?

It measures 8 × 8.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Pcb adapter use?

2 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 Pcb adapter KiCad files?

From the james-tate/USBC-PCB-Adapter repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb_adapter/pcb_adapter.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Pcb adapter design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
