Questions

How big is the Adapater a PCB?

It measures 53.3 × 99.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Adapater a use?

58 parts, built around the TLV2372IP, TPS5430DDA, 1N4148W and B340. 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 Adapater a KiCad files?

From the jensboe/Modellbahn repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is adapater_a/adapater_a.kicad_pcb and its schematic adapater_a/adapater_a.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Adapater a design in my own project?

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