Questions
How big is the Carrier basic PCB?
It measures 150 × 150 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Carrier basic use?
25 parts, built around the TF-01A and TYPE-C-31-M-12. 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 Carrier basic KiCad files?
From the robotman2412/pixieboard repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is carrier-basic/carrier-basic.kicad_pcb and its schematic carrier-basic/carrier-basic.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Carrier basic design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask robotman2412 before reusing the design.
