2 open source boards using the StepDown

Real designs built with the StepDown, from public GitHub projects: a quick way to see how others power, decouple and connect it. Each board comes with its KiCad files, full parts list and a render — and you can simulate its firmware on HardLabs.

StepDown: common questions

Where can I find a StepDown reference design?

Each of the 2 boards on this page is a real design using the StepDown. Open one to see how it is wired up, with the full BOM, a render of the layout and links to its KiCad files.

Which microcontrollers do boards using the StepDown use?

Most are built on STM32 (1).

How big is a typical board using the StepDown?

The median is 73 × 83.3 mm, and 100% are two-layer designs.

What is the most popular open source board using the StepDown?

By GitHub stars, Lasersaurv2 by bullestock, with 4 stars.

Can I simulate one of these boards using the StepDown before building it?

Yes. HardLabs turns a board's netlist and BOM into a working simulation, so you can boot and test firmware against it with no hardware on your desk.
