Questions

What parts does the UltrasonicTransmitter use?

31 parts, built around the LM555N and BC546. 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 UltrasonicTransmitter KiCad files?

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

Can I use the UltrasonicTransmitter design in my own project?

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