Questions

How big is the NRF RX PCB?

It measures 49.8 × 27.9 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the NRF RX use?

30 parts, built around the ATMEGA328-AU, LM1117-3.3 and LM1117-5.0. 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 NRF RX KiCad files?

From the jarsam/RX repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/NRF-RX.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the NRF RX design in my own project?

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