Are you prototyping electronics using breadboards or stripboards? Want to make it more permanent and professional looking? Or just save time making the 5th copy of a handsoldered board?

This workshop will get you started using the popular Open Source software Kicad. We'll use Kicad version 8/9 to design a simple PCB from scratch, going through Schematic, PCB layout as well as creating missing schematic and footprints. Bring your own computer. A proper mouse is also an advantage when using EDA (Electronic Design Automation) software. We'll go over the entire process, including how to order the boards. If you order the board you create in this workshop, you can solder it at Bitraf when it arrives a few weeks later.

You'll only learn the basics in this 3+ hour workshop, but if you want to work on other PCB's after the workshop, the regular Build Night (Thursday evenings) is a great place to do so. There is usually members attending every Build Night that can offer feedback and advice for PCB design.

Note: it's been a while since we did this workshop, so it'll probably fill up quickly. There will be a waitlist available, so make sure that you don't hold a seat without attending. If something comes in the way of you attending - please unregister so others can use your slot?
