Questions
How big is the STEPDOWN1A PCB?
It measures 40.1 × 40.1 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the STEPDOWN1A use?
38 parts, built around the L7987 and STPS5L60. 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 STEPDOWN1A KiCad files?
From the mlab-modules/STEPDOWN01 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is STEPDOWN1A_12V/STEPDOWN1A.kicad_pcb and its schematic STEPDOWN1A.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the STEPDOWN1A design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask mlab-modules before reusing the design.
