Nice. What’s the dropout on the regulator? Would you consider open sourcing the PCB design?

It appears to be exactly the same as the SP power module except with can caps and micro-USB.

Yes, it is similar to GHI’s SP module — but then, all such power regulation circuits are similar

Regulator is LM1117, dropout is 1.2V at 800mA.

PCB is not close-sourced, I just do not have where to put it (yet). If anyone is interested in EAGLE files, contact me privately…
