Questions

Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the AT86RF231-ZU?

Yes. The symbol is EasyEDA_Cloud:AT86RF231-ZUR and the footprint EasyEDA_Cloud:QFN-32_L5.0-W5.0-P0.50-BL-EP3.4, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.

What package is the AT86RF231-ZU?

QFN-32-EP(5x5), with 33 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.

Where is the AT86RF231-ZU datasheet?

Microchip Technology publishes it: the Datasheet link on this page opens it.

Where can I order the AT86RF231-ZU?

JLCPCB lists it as part C1526138, with 0 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.

What can replace the AT86RF231-ZU?

Parts like it in the library: the NRF905-REEL by Nordic Semicon and the EFR32FG14P231F128GM32-BR by Silicon Labs. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.
