Kicad seems like a very good GNU program to use for PCBs. I was using Eagle -
but want to use Open Source. I'm using Build SVN-R1715 (20090413).
I have a few questions:
1) I cannot get wires to connect to pins in eeschema- all marked unconnected -
but appear to be connected at highest
I'm using kicad-2009-02-16-final-CENTOS_4.4.tgz
on a SUSE 11.1 system, that works fine.
Kicad should be installed under /usr/local/kicad
The projects would normally be in a directory under your own user
directory.I'm wondering if you have a simple permissions problem by
putting your projects
Dear Kicad User,
I have a great issue with annotation.
I use library : 74xx-eu.lib
And in my circuit I use
2 components: 74HC14N
1 component 74HC4052.
After schematic annotation I obtain IC1, IC2, and IC3 for 74HC4052
So the issue is when I generate the netlist:
IC3 annotation is converted in
Hi,
Is it possible to join a track to a net without starting drawing on the net in
question? In other words, if I start tracing in the middle of nowhere, the
track is assigned to Net:0/noname. It is then impossible to join it to another
net with DRC on (I get the ErrType(16) of the subject);
Thanks:
I solved my library problems, but still can't connect the wires to the devices.
Making a big circular junction that covers the wire and pin doesn't make the
connection. I made the pins passive and it still is making a warning
unconnected pin.
Another nice feature to put on the todo
