reggie

A tiny, powerful open source regulator board based on TPS563203DRLR. Reggie is perfect for replacing PTH08080s in designs both old and new!

P1c6E5o9

Specs:

  • Tiny 8.5 x 10.8mm PCB
  • 4.2V to 17V input (14V recommended maximum)
  • 0.6 to 7V output
    • set Vout with 1206 size resistor on underside of board
  • 3A max output current
    • thermally limited— at voltages >5V, output current is lower
  • 80% or better efficiency

Usage:

  • Solder a 1206 size resistor to the footprint on the bottom of the PCB to set Vout. (With no resistor, Vout is 0.6V.)
    • 1V - 18k
    • 1.15V - 13k
    • 1.5V - 7.5k
    • 1.8V - 5.9k
    • 2.5V - 3.74k
    • 3.3V - 2.61k
    • 3.5V - 2.49k
    • 5V - 1.58k
  • The regulator is enabled by default. Connect the EN pin to GND to disable the regulator. 
  • Reggie does not need external capacitors. However, some applications may benefit from external electrolytic caps.

Questions

How big is the Reggie jig PCB?

It measures 50 × 20 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Reggie jig use?

9 parts. 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 Reggie jig KiCad files?

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

Can I use the Reggie jig design in my own project?

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