Programmable Remote

This repo contains all files related to my project to make a programmable infrared remote control.

I'm using this project as a way to get deeper into embedded programming. It should suffice as a companion project while I read Elecia White's Making Embedded Systems.

Questions

How big is the Adafruit USB C microlipo charger PCB?

It measures 22.9 × 19 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Adafruit USB C microlipo charger use?

24 parts, built around the MCP73831T-2ACI/OT-HXY. 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 Adafruit USB C microlipo charger KiCad files?

From the spilliams/programmable-remote repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is ref/Adafruit USB C microlipo charger/Adafruit USB C microlipo charger.kicad_pcb and its schematic pcb/irPod/irPod.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Adafruit USB C microlipo charger design in my own project?

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