Questions
How big is the AlienDetector PCB?
It measures 60 × 76 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the AlienDetector use?
75 parts, built around the CC2500RGP, STMPE811Q, BLM15AG102SN1 and MMBT2222. 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 AlienDetector KiCad files?
From the Kreyl/AlienDetector repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is AlienDetector_hw/AlienDetector.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the AlienDetector design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Kreyl before reusing the design.
