Questions

How big is the Cansat pcb PCB?

It measures 63 × 109 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Cansat pcb use?

21 parts, built around the SGP30, AO3400A and DMG2301L. 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 Cansat pcb KiCad files?

From the samvandenabeele/CanSat repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is cansat-pcb/cansat pcb.kicad_pcb and its schematic cansat-pcb/BATTERY.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Cansat pcb design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
