Questions

How big is the Module Large IOexpander PCB?

It measures 39.6 × 36.4 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Module Large IOexpander use?

15 parts. 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 Module Large IOexpander KiCad files?

From the sullyjason/interactiles repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Button_Modules/Large/Module_Large_IOexpander/Module_Large_IOexpander.kicad_pcb and its schematic 2x2 Interactiles/PCB/Controller PCB/RGB 2x2 with WS2811.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Module Large IOexpander design in my own project?

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