Questions
How big is the CommBadge PCB?
It measures 49.7 × 31.7 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.2 mm thick.
What parts does the CommBadge use?
47 parts, built around the ESP32-S3-MINI-1-N4R2, MAX98357AEWL+T, ICS-43434 and ME6211C33M5G-N. 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 CommBadge KiCad files?
From the romanvrable/openmic repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/CommBadge/CommBadge.kicad_pcb and its schematic PCB/CommBadge/CommBadge.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the CommBadge design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
