Hi, Yes it is possible. Just look how opamp symbols are made in Kicad. I think that it is possible to split the part on A B C D subparts. I would use double...
Dear all, One question on pcbnew, don't know whether there are simple way to achieve. For instance I defined footprint of several resistors as "R3" and ...
Hi Patrick, It is easier than that. In pcbnew, select a module and edit its properties. Then click on "change module" button. You can change only this module...
Hi, this is Javier, I´m new at this group. I would like to know how this libraries thing work. I have downloaded a lot of them, but don´t know where to...
... You copy them them into your kicad\library or kicad\modules directory depending on what you downloaded. ... You can use any npn transistor with the same...
When trying to move or rotate part values label or part ID number (ie. R1) eeschema falls down if trying to click with left mouse button. This appears only if...
Thanks for the answers, I´ve tried to copy and paste a ".lib" file into kicak/library, but I can´t see the library when I try to open it with eeschema... ...
Hi Martin, thanks for the bug report. However, I could not reproduce your bug with the latest svn, nor with release 918 under Kubuntu 8.04. Maybe you can be...
I will answer myself... After searching a lot throught the net I found the answer. At least with Vista is not good enought to copy and paste the ".lib" file...
The same thing applies to modules in PCBnew. You have to add the modules to your project. This has nothing to do with Vista, it works the same on every OS, I...
I cannot figure out how to move the text for the dimensions of the PCB. I adjusted it by hand in $COTATION section (Xpos, Ypos) in the PCB file and it worked...
... Hi dear ghztrfvbn :-) As a new user, you can use the search tool on this page; you will find a lot of libs... and many other usefull things for a kicad...
Hi all, I'm a new french user of Kicad and I'd like to say that this software is really nice! :) I use it for guitar related diy project and the only problem i...
... Hi Victor, Until now there is not special policy and all contributions are welcome. Probably in the future we have to improve the organisation, but that is...
Hi, I'll begin a new design (3rd with Kicad) in some days, and I should ask before drawing schematic: What could be the most efficient way to make a single...
My PCB house DRC check complains about vias having pads on inner layers. How to have via pads on the outside and no pads inside the board on 4 layer board? The...
Hi, I am not sure that this is possible. Vias and through hole components have pad for every layer. Try to edit the files with a Gerber editor and trim the...
I did not find any way of doing it either without resorting to gerber changes. It seems that the house does not like small pads on inside layers, their program...
I'm not sure how to go back and correct, but when you initially setup your Via parameters Dimensions->Tracks_and_Vias you can use the radio buttons to select...
Yes, I did that, I use standard vias, 0.01 drill. 0.025 pad, no micro, no buried, no blind. I just need to specify different pad size (or remove) on inner...
... layer. ... I'd suggest making the via sizes an odd-ball number, say 0.026". That's close to the 0.025" you're already using and shouldn't cause any...
What happened to Linux versions? The last SVN at SourceForge.net seems to be 918 from March, 20 (both source and binary, seems buggy) but the Windoze build is...
Hi all, Just a quick query, does anyone out there have a LQFP-48 package they would be willing to share? I am working on an AD/DA board and the chips only come...
