Questions

How big is the Usb2uart kicad PCB?

It measures 41.2 × 32.6 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.61 mm thick.

What parts does the Usb2uart kicad use?

49 parts, built around the CH344Q, SPX3819M5-L-3-3/TR, TPD2E2U06QDCKRQ1 and 0402CG150J500NT. 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 Usb2uart kicad KiCad files?

From the samvangysegem/usb2uart-hardware repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is usb2uart-kicad/usb2uart-kicad.kicad_pcb and its schematic usb2uart-kicad/usb2uart-kicad.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Usb2uart kicad design in my own project?

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