Good afternoon! Tell me, please, where can I find a DC-DC boost converter in the Fritzing element library? I leave a link to what I mean. [https://www.amazon.com/DZS-Elec-Converter-Adjustable-Regulator/dp/B07L64GJ42](https://www.amazon.com/DZS-Elec-Converter-Adjustable-Regulator/dp/B07L64GJ42) ---

The rio rand lm2596 in core parts should do the job. Peter ---

Sorry. But I did not find such an element lm2596 in my Fritzing library. How should I proceed then? ---

I typed ‘rio rand’ into the search field and got 2 results. One is the part you are looking for, the other is an IR receiver. fritzing v0.9.9. Randy ---

I’m happy for you. that you found what you need. My program version is 0.9.3. Looks like I don’t have these items. Can you send me a file with the element I need? ---

Click Help-\>check for updates. That should trigger a parts update which will load the current parts repository. There is also one in the forums here > [@LM2596 step down module](https://forum.fritzing.org/t/lm2596-step-down-module/6380): > > [LM2596%20step%20down%20module] [LM2596 step down module.fzpz](https://forum.fritzing.org/uploads/default/original/2X/8/876018ce35bcc333dd7083f3bbbc5dcc86a9fb20.fzpz) (24.2 KB) but I don’t know if it is good quality or not (submitted parts are of varying quality!) There is another version here (I think this may be the current one in core parts.) > [@Correction for the RioRand\_LM2596 from core (somewhere!)](https://forum.fritzing.org/t/correction-for-the-riorand-lm2596-from-core-somewhere/2272): > > Someone logged a bug against RioRand\_LM2596 (“a problem pcb lm2596 #3282”) from core on the github bug tracker. Allthough for me, while search finds it fine, I can’t, so I don’t know exactly which bin its in! Since I have one of these (or more correctly a clone from Ebay) and thus have an interest in a working Fritz part, I had a look and indeed the part is broken. The PCB view doesn’t match the board (possibly because the intent was to use wires to the board), but more important is that breadbo… A google search of the form “fritzing part lm2596” found all these.

Thank you, Peter! This is what I want.
