Questions

How big is the Octoserial PCB?

It measures 110 × 82.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Octoserial use?

39 parts, built around the CH348Q and AMS1117-3.3. 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 Octoserial KiCad files?

From the superna9999/octoserial repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is octoserial.kicad_pcb and its schematic octoserial.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Octoserial design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the Apache-2.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
