As you know I made some PDB’s in the past for some projects. From “Normal” components I switched over to SMD. But now I want to make things as small as possible. So I was thinking about a project I did a time ago, with a Raspberry Pi Zero W. This raspberry has so called …
For anyone out there who has ever struggled finding a part for KiCAD, there are some who would say you’re doing it wrong. You’re supposed to make your own parts if you can’t find them in the libraries you already have. This is really the only way; PCB design tools are tools, and so the …

In this blog, I will learn you how to Create a new symbol (or component as it is also known). You use symbols in schematic diagrams that you can create in Eeschema. Most likely, you want to create a custom schematic symbol because you have a physical component but can’t find an existing symbol to …
My wife has always wanted to have a water ornament in the garden. To her pleasure my father-in-law wanted to remove his and we were allowed to have it. After a thorough cleaning, the Fountain light turned out to work only partially. Half of the Fountain light LED’s no longer worked. Upon which my wife …
In my previous blogs I started a new project Raspberry Pi® – Powerunit® with a follow up about the software here. Hereafter I designed the PCB in KICAD here. It used to be, that buying PCB’s in hobby quantities, was expensive and filled with gotcha’s. Now, places like Seeed Studio can send your PCB’s to …
We can make plenty of PCB designs using KiCAD, a powerful open source CAD tool. What makes them unique is customized Logo and brand names. KiCAD offers us a feature to add logos in any of the silk screens; bottom or top. Rather than just a textual logos, a graphical logo makes the design look …
