#kicad — Public Fediverse posts

I'll follow the KiCad Library Conventions for my custom symbols in #KiCad. Makes up for an interesting read by te way! https://klc.kicad.org/

Anyone else on Ubuntu 24 having issues with #KiCAD 10.0.5 just "pausing"?

I quite often get "KiCad has stopped responding, force quit or wait?"

usually when switching between shcematic and PCB, or after running polygon pour?

Not bad for a first attempt. #KiCAD to 3D print (via #OpenSCAD).

#KiCad + Dorota = plugin.

It helps you route tracks using 0Ω resistors. Because doing that manually is way too much clicking and accidentally lost work.

I've been told what I'm doing is fighting KiCad, but if the plugin gets me through this project, then I don't have to find another tool for a while.

Oh noes. My #jlcpcb order arrived. But they forgot to drill all the holes for vias and THT parts. Their webview shows them fine. And it's the usual #kicad export script I've always used. Support case opened :(

Finally found some time to bring my #NeoPixel Heart PCBs into a usable state and add some documentation. The #sourcecode is hosted on @Codeberg at https://codeberg.org/rommudoh/NoisyMcHeart and works for both variants (big and small).
I think I'll publish the #KiCad files soon, too.
Thanks to #platformio I can use the same code for both hardware variants.

I designed a #SMD adapter board using @kicad and let @aislerhq manufacture them. They are for #SOT23 on one side and #SOT363 on the other side. They bridge the gap of a #solderless #breadboard, so they are perfect for #prototyping circuits or trying out new components - or as replacement for through-hole parts. I soldered a dual diode #BAV70 on one and a dual NPN/PNP transistor #BC847BPN on a second one to try them out. I'm satisfied how they look, although the white area for labeling is a bit small - I need a thinner pen for that.
You can find the shared project here: https://aisler.net/p/UTAGNLYX (trying out this feature, please give feedback if you use it).

One of the final modules for my #StackSynth project: the #noise generator. It outputs white, blue, and pink noise and uses a #3904 and a #TL074 with a lot of resistors and a couple of capacitors.
It is based on Moritz Klein's video: https://youtu.be/0yB_h_wFkh4
I prototyped it on solderless #breadboard and then designed the #PCB in @kicad and let @aislerhq manufacture them again. It turned out quite nice and sounds great.

Und jetzt hab ich die #Schaltung in #KiCAD - Die Doku schiebe ich zu oft lange vor mir her.

Heya! I'm Greg. 👋

I design, assemble, and photograph #circuitboards

I'm an embedded engineer/maker, using #electronics and #programming to solve problems. I'm involved with #opensource hardware. Working with #kicad #riscv #fpga and #asic digital design

I hand assemble circuit boards down to 0201 size along with bga/wlcsp packages, I like pushing my electronics rework skills to the same limits.

My favourite projects typically involve lots of LEDs or thermal camera sensors
