After a successful first year of KiCon in 2019 in Chicago, it will change venues to CERN, a major contributor to the KiCad project! KiCon 2020: A KiCad conference at CERN, September 11th-13th, 2020 More details soon! If you’re interested...
Breakout board designed in KiCad to connect Pervasive Displays 2.15" E-Paper (E2215CS062) to Teensy 3.2 or Teensy LC. Based Teensy E-Paper Shield by @jarek319 in EAGLE.The goal is to create a name badge that can be worn at conferences and Maker Faires....
We're very pleased announce that we're finally able to direct uploads of kicad_pcb files on OSH Park!This means that you can place an order without going through the plot process, worrying about drill formats, or fiddling with CAM settings. It also means...
I designed this simple breakout board in KiCad to make it easier to put a rotary encoder on a breadboard. The KiCad symbol and footprint for the SparkFun rotary encoder was created by mcous on GitHub. I used an updated version with corrected pin numbering.Bill...

Just a quick test of the program TopoR. This is my Bloxorz cartridge, manually routed in KiCad: And this is the routing with TopoR: Looks very good, 100% routed, less vias (20 instead of 35) and shorter connections. I have to look in more detail into...
Hackaday reports:OpenFixture Takes the Pain Out of Pogo Pins[Elliot] wrote in with his OpenFixture model for OpenSCAD. It’s awesome because it takes a small problem, that nonetheless could consume an entire day, and solves it neatly. And that problem...
