|-
| 00.01
| Welcome to the spoken tutorial on “Designing circuit schematic in Kicad”

|-
| 00.08
| Let us now see the steps involved in PCB designing

|-
| 00.12
| First step is to create schematic for the desired circuit.

|-
| 00.16
|Second step is to generate netlist.

|-
| 00.19
| Third step is to map components with corresponding footprints.

|-
| 00.22
|And fourth step is to create board layout for the circuit.

|-
| 00.27
|In this tutorial we will learn first step, that is,

|-
| 00.32
|Creating a schematic for the desired circuit.

|-
|00.35
| We are using Ubuntu 12.04 as the operating system.

|-
|00.40
| With KiCad version 2011 hyphen 05 hyphen 25 for this tutorial.

|-
| 00.49
|Basic knowledge of electronic circuits is a pre-requisite for this tutorial.

|-
| 00.56
|We will use Astable multivibrator as an example circuit for this tutorial.

|-
| 01.04
|To start KiCad,

|-
| 01.05
|Go to top left corner of ubuntu desktop screen.

|-
| 01.08
|Click on first icon i.e the Dash home.

|-
|01.12
| In the search bar type 'KiCad', and press Enter.

|-
| 01.19
|KiCad main window will appear on the screen.

|-
| 01.22
| Note that in Ubuntu 12.04, the menu bar of KiCad appears on the top panel of Ubuntu desktop.

|-
| 01.30
|To start a new project, click on File and then click on New.

|-
| 01.35
|Give a name to your project. For example, project1.

|-
| 01.42
| Note that project is getting saved with .pro extension

|-
|01.47
| Let me resize this window for better view

|-
| 01.52
| Notice where your project is getting saved and change the directory if needed.

|-
| 01.58
| Click on Save.

|-
| 02.01
| Circuit schematics are made in KiCad using EESchema.

|-
| 02.06
|Let me show you how to start EESchema in KiCad.

|-
|02.10
| The first tab in the top panel of KiCad main window is called as EESchema or schematic editor

|-
| 02.19
|Clicking on EESchema tab opens the schematic editor.

|-
| 02.23
|An Info dialog box will appear saying it cannot find the schematic.

|-
| 02.28
|Click on Ok.

|-
| 02.32
|We will create circuit schematics here.

|-
| 02.35
| Go to right panel of EESchema window.

|-
|02.38
|click on Place a component button.

|-
| 02.42
| Now click on the blank EESchema window.

|-
| 02.46
| The component selection window will open up.

|-
| 02.49
| Now we will place 555 timer IC schematic in the EESchema window.

|-
| 02.56
|In the Name field of component selection window, type 555 and click on Ok.

|-
| 03.05
|It will show the search result as LM555N.

|-
| 03.11
|Select this result and click on OK.

|-
| 03.14
|The component’s schematic will appear on the EESchema window.

|-
| 03.19
|It would be tied to your cursor.

|-
| 03.22
| Place the component at the center of the screen by a single click.

|-
| 03.27
| To zoom in and out for better view use the scroll button of your mouse.

|-
| 03.35
| Keep Cursor on Component which you want to zoom in and zoom out.

|-
| 03.39
|You can also use F1 and F2 keys to zoom in and zoom out, respectively.

|-
| 03.46
| You may or may not see the VCC and GND i.e. the ground terminal on the 555 IC.

|-
| 03.56
| If you do not see it, go to the left panel of EESchema window.

|-
| 04.00
| Click on the Show hidden pins button.

|-
| 04.04
|Now we will place a resistor in the EESchema window.

|-
| 04.09
|The Place a component option was previously selected by us.

|-
| 04.13
|Hence, simply click on EESchema and you will see the component selection window.

|-
| 04.21
|In the name field, type r and click on OK.

|-
| 04.26
| Resistor schematic will appear on EESchema which will be tied to cursor.

|-
| 04.32
|Place the resistor somewhere on the EESchema by a single click

|-
| 04.37
|We need two more resistors.

|-
| 04.39
|We can get the two resistors using the Place a component button.

|-
| 04.42
|But since we already have a resistor, let us see how to copy a component.

|-
| 04.48
| To copy a component, right click on the component and choose Copy Component.

|-
| 05.01
|A copy of the component will be tied to your cursor.

|-
| 05.05
|Place this resistor somewhere on EESchema by a single click.

|-
| 05.11
|This can also be done more quickly using the keyboard shortcut c.

|-
| 05.16
|For this, keep the cursor on the component and then press c.

|-
| 05.22
| Again it will be tied to your cursor.

|-
| 05.27
|Click once to place it.

|-
| 05.30
| A list of shortcuts can be obtained by pressing Shift and ? (question mark) key.

|-
| 05.36
|Here is the list of keyboard shortcuts.

|-
| 05.40
|Close this window.

|-
| 05.43
|Click on EESchema window to open the component selection window.

|-
| 05.49
|Next we need two capacitors, electrolytic and ceramic.

|-
| 05.53
| Type cp1 to add electrolytic capacitor and click OK.

|-
| 06.00
|Type c to add ceramic capacitor and click OK.

|-
| 06.06
|We also need a Light Emitting Diode, know as LED.

|-
|06.10
|In component selection window type led and click on OK.

|-
|06.17
| Now we need a power supply i.e.Vcc and Ground terminals.

|-
| 06.22
| On the right panel of EESchema, click on Place a power port button.

|-
| 06.29
|Click once on the EESchema to open the component selection window.

|-
| 06.34
|Click on List All button and you will see a list of various power notations.

|-
| 06.40
|Choose +5V (plus 5 volt) and click on OK.

|-
| 06.48
| Place the component by single click on the EESchema window

|-
| 06.52
|Similarly, to get the ground terminal,

|-
| 06.54
|choose ground from the list and click on OK

|-
| 07.01
|Let me choose the ground terminal

|-
| 07.08
| We also need a connector to connect the external power supply

|-
| 07.14
|Click on the EESchema to open the component selection window.

|-
| 07.19
| Click on List All button and you will see a list.

|-
| 07.24
|Choose conn option and click on OK.

|-
| 07.31
|Scroll down and choose CONN_2 from the list and click on OK.

|-
| 07.41
| A two terminal connector will appear. It will be tied to your mouse pointer

|-
| 07.48
|Click once to place it.

|-
|07.56
|Now we will arrange the components, by moving them to appropriate places.

|-
| 08.01
|We will use the shortcut key m for moving the components.

|-
| 08.04
|To move a component, keep the mouse pointer on a component, say resistor, and then press m.

|-
|08.15
| We will place this resistor to the right of IC 555 by a single click on the EESchema.

|-
| 08.28
| We will use the keyboard shortcut key r for rotating the LED and aligning it vertically.

|-
|08.40
| Now we will see how to interconnect or wire the components as per the circuit diagram.

|-
| 08.45
| Let us start with the interconnection of components.

|-
| 08.48
| On right panel of EESchema, Click on Place a wire button.

|-
| 08.56
|We will now interconnect two resistors.

|-
|08.58
| We will connect wire by clicking on either nodes of both the resistors.

|-
| 09.11
|Now we will connect the 7th pin of IC 555 to the wire connecting the two resistor.

|-
| 09.18
|Click on the 7th pin of IC 555 and then on the wire connecting the two resistors.

|-
| 09.30
| Notice that this will automatically form a junction which appears as a node.

|-
| 09.35
|I have already interconnected the components and saved it.

|-
| 09.39
| I will now open and use this already made schematic to save time.

|-
| 09.44
|I will go to file menu & click on open.

|-
| 09.53
|A Confirmation window opens. Click on Yes.

|-
| 10.04
|I will choose project1.sch from the desired directory.

|-
| 10.18
|Let me resize this window first .

|-
| 10.22
|and then I will click on open.

|-
| 10.33
|Here is the schematic created earlier.

|-
| 10.36
|We would now see how to annotate components.

|-
| 10.39
|Annotation gives unique identification to each component.

|-
| 10.43
|Annotating will replace the question marks on the components with unique numbers.

|-
| 10.50
|On top panel of EESchema, Click on “Annotate schematic” button.

|-
| 10.58
|This will open the Annotate Schematic window.

|-
|11.02
|In this window, keep the default configuration.

|-
|11.05
| Click on the Annotation Button.

|-
|11.09
|This will warn you that it will annotate only the un-annotate components.

|-
|11.13
|Click on OK.

|-
| 11.15
|Click on the Close button on the Annotate schematic window.

|-
|11.20
|Notice that the question marks on the components are replaced with unique numbers.

|-
|11.30
|Click on File

|-
| 11.37
| and choose Save whole schematic project to save this schematic.

|-
| 11.43
|Click on File and choose Quit.

|-
| 11.48
| This will close the EESchema window.

|-
|11.50
|Now go to KiCad main window.

|-
|11.53
|Click on File and choose Quit

|-
| 11.56
| This completes the objective of this tutorial of creating circuit schematic in KiCad.

|-
| 12.01
