Questions
What parts does the Boost converter use?
13 parts, built around the BUK7880-55A-VB. 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 Boost converter KiCad files?
From the Pornesh/PCB-Design repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is csp/boost converter/boost converter.kicad_pcb and its schematic csp/Buck converter/Buck converter.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Boost converter design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Pornesh before reusing the design.
