Name: 3-day Hardware Workshop: From Sketch to PCB w/ KiCAD
Start: 2013-09-13T19:00:00-04:00
End: 2013-09-15T22:00:00-04:00
Location: Nova Labs

Take your project from breadboard to printed circuit board! This 3-day hardware workshop will be led by WyoLum Co-Founder and master designer Anool Mahidharia utilizing KiCAD ( http://www.kicad-pcb.org/display/KICAD/KiCad+EDA+Software+Suite ).

The workshop runs September 13-15, 2013, Friday evening and all day Saturday and Sunday.

Charge: $300 includes Snacks on Friday, coffee, lunch on Sat/Sun. A portion of the proceeds will benefit Nova Labs.

The goal of the weekend is for each student to complete a design, ready for submittal to a fabricator like OSHPark (http://oshpark.com/).

Project ideas:

Custom Arduino compatible board An Arduino shield Motor controller Clock (our favorite) Custom NeoPixel board We recommend participants read the below blog (Part 1 published, Part 2 coming soon) prior to attending the workshop.

How To Design the Perfect PCB – Part 1 http://www.michaelhleonard.com/how-to-design-the-perfect-pcb-part1/

Mainly because while we will be covering KiCad specifically at the workshop, it will help if people know the basics (especially those who have never designed a board).
