Questions

How big is the Rs485-usb PCB?

It measures 67.3 × 20.3 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Rs485-usb use?

17 parts, built around the MAX488ESA+, FT232RL and RJ45. 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 Rs485-usb KiCad files?

From the visgence/rs485-usb repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is rs485-usb.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Rs485-usb design in my own project?

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