Questions

How big is the RF USB PCB?

It measures 50 × 30 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the RF USB use?

41 parts, built around the NRF24L01, TLV75533PDBV and USBLC6-2SC6. 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 RF USB KiCad files?

From the jramsay42/RF_USB repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is RFUSB/RFUSB.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the RF USB design in my own project?

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