Questions
How big is the OpenLED PCB?
It measures 44.2 × 7.1 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the OpenLED use?
16 parts, built around the WS2812B and SM03B-SRSS-TB(LF)(SN). 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 OpenLED KiCad files?
From the lmiez/OpenLED repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is OpenLED LONG/OpenLED.kicad_pcb and its schematic OpenLED COMPACT/OpenLED.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the OpenLED design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask lmiez before reusing the design.
