Questions

Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the EM260-RT?

Yes. The symbol is EasyEDA_Cloud:EM260-RTR and the footprint EasyEDA_Cloud:HVQFN-40_L6.0-W6.0-P0.50-TL-EP4.1, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.

What package is the EM260-RT?

QFN-40(6x6), with 41 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.

Where is the EM260-RT datasheet?

Silicon Labs publishes it: the Datasheet link on this page opens it.

Where can I order the EM260-RT?

JLCPCB lists it as part C5632840, with 0 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.

What can replace the EM260-RT?

Parts like it in the library: the K32W041Z by NXP Semiconductors, the QN9090HN/001Z by NXP Semiconductors, the K32W061Z by NXP Semiconductors and the KW45B41Z52AFPBT by NXP Semiconductors. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.
