Overview

The A6 is a 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G Module made by Ai-Thinker in a SMD,34x43mm package with 42 pins. -30℃~+80℃ 3.3V~4.2V 850MHz、900MHz、1800MHz、1900MHz GPRS、GSM I2C、UART、GPIO、SIM card UMTS function、Audio playback and recording function、SIM Card Detection SMD,34x43mm 2G/3G/4G/5G Modules ROHS.

PCBKit's library has its KiCad symbol (EasyEDA_Cloud:A6, from EasyEDA) and its footprint (EasyEDA_Cloud:COMM-SMD_42P-L22.8-W16.8-P1.40, from EasyEDA), ready for a KiCad board. JLCPCB lists it (part C82901).
