Designed a crudely reverse engineered PCB of a standard RGB light controlling remote. The schematic has 0 ERC but there are DRC issues in PCB editor which I will resolve from time to time. This design is purely a personal project to determine my reverse engineering skills.

The final pcb is improvised a lot and there are additional vias placed whenever necessary.

Questions

What parts does the RGB Remote use?

72 parts. 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 RGB Remote KiCad files?

From the Nayan9ine/RGB-light-Controller-Remote- repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is KIcad Files/RGB Remote.kicad_pcb and its schematic KIcad Files/RGB Remote.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the RGB Remote design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Nayan9ine before reusing the design.
