Not fabricated, assembled or powered. Every number in a board's README is measured by KiCad 10 on the files in its folder (report.json). Parts are LCSC-numbered and were in JLCPCB's stock on the date each README gives.

Each board folder holds kicad/ (project), fab/ (Gerbers zip, BOM, CPL, STEP, schematic PDF), media/ (renders and a design-process video) and board.json (the brief it was built from).

Designed with the HeyPCB method on KiCad 10 by heypcb-kicad's headless pipeline with Freerouting 2.4.1.

Questions

How big is the Power dual buck PCB?

It measures 50 × 36 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Power dual buck use?

34 parts, built around the TPS563201DDCR, CL21A226MAQNNNE, CC0603KRX7R9BB104 and CL31A226KAHNNNE. 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 Power dual buck KiCad files?

From the HeyPCB/power-kit repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is boards/dual-rail/kicad/power_dual_buck.kicad_pcb and its schematic boards/boost-1s/kicad/power_boost_1s.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Power dual buck design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the CERN-OHL-S-2.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
