Questions
How big is the LT3045-4 PCB?
It measures 100 × 50 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the LT3045-4 use?
36 parts, built around the LT3042 and DLW5BTH101TQ2L. 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 LT3045-4 KiCad files?
From the tchiwam/LNA repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Kicad/LT3045-4.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the LT3045-4 design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask tchiwam before reusing the design.
