Pi-Power

Simple 3 Amp power supply board to power the single board computer over GPIO. Input should be between 9 and 24 VDC.

Board breaks out SPI and I2C, and provides some 5V 2.54mm headers toward the bottom and some general proto area in the middle.

Simple word of warning:

Do not stick your fingers into this circuit while it's powering something you care about. Your fingers have a resistance value, and will change the feedback network regulating the output (R2,4), and/or bridge the compensation circuit (R3,C4) potentially causing a power surge to the board. Follow typical electrical rules, don't stick your hands into live power supply circuits.

Questions

How big is the 2019-Pi Power PCB?

It measures 65 × 56 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the 2019-Pi Power use?

132 parts, built around the MP1584EN and M2.5. 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 2019-Pi Power KiCad files?

From the Tonymac32/Pi-Power repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is 2019-Pi-Power.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the 2019-Pi Power design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Tonymac32 before reusing the design.
