Questions
How big is the Keybug PCB?
It measures 21 × 96.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Keybug use?
13 parts, built around the RP2040-ZERO. 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 Keybug KiCad files?
From the jbellue/keybug repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/keybug.kicad_pcb and its schematic PCB/keybug.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Keybug design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask jbellue before reusing the design.
