Questions
How big is the Mini power PCB?
It measures 20.3 × 27.3 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Mini power use?
8 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 Mini power KiCad files?
From the philopon/mini-power repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is mini-power.kicad_pcb and its schematic mini-power.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Mini power design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask philopon before reusing the design.
