Questions

How big is the PSU Front End PCB?

It measures 100 × 100 mm and has 4 copper layers, 4.69 mm thick.

What parts does the PSU Front End use?

78 parts, built around the TMCS1108A2UQD and TPS565242DRL. 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 PSU Front End KiCad files?

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

Can I use the PSU Front End design in my own project?

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