Hi Jim,
I am struggling with hierarchical schematics too, but the idea is to make a
single board from many sub-sheets, not seperate PCBs from each sub-sheet.
Suppose you were building an audio amplifier.
Maybe the circuit is complex and to make it more readable you would break it
into
The hierarchical circuit system is there to help you split up a circuit
into manageable sections. it is NOT a method to make separate PCBs as
such.
It is possible to make separate PCBs, but you will have to be
careful regarding interconnections, and you would have to accept that.
ALL the PCB's
Hello Andy, hello Jim.
Another option that I have seen suggested, is that you can open the sub
sheet as a separate project and work on that, but that can cause it's own
issues. (I've never tried this)
Of course. This works very well. I prefer this method, because it is the
easiest way to
Is there any way to force KiCAD to make a PCB of a single schematic sheet,
even when buried within a larger hierarchical design?
I had a similar issue with a sandwitch-board (i.e. two pcb mounted with risers).
The trick is to use a single pcb file with all your boards drawn into it and
