| 00.01 | Dear Friends, |
| 00.02 | Welcome to the spoken tutorial on Mapping components with footprints in KiCad |
| 00.07 | In this spoken tutorial, we will learn |
| 00.10 | To map components with corresponding footprints. |
| 00.13 | Basic knowledge of electronic circuit is pre-requisite for this tutorial. |
| 00.18 | User should know how to design circuit schematic in KiCad, |
| 00.23 | And do electric rule check and netlist generation. |
| 00.26 | For relevant tutorials, please visit spoken hyphen tutorial.org |
| 00.33 | We are using Ubuntu 12.04 as an operating system |
| 00.37 | With KiCad 2011 hyphen 05 hyphen 25 for this tutorial. |
| 00.47 | To start KiCad,
|
| 00.49 | Go to the top left corner of Ubuntu desktop screen. |
| 00.52 | Click on the first icon (i.e.)the Dash home. |
| 00.56 | In the search bar type 'KiCad' and press Enter. |
| 01.04 | This will open KiCad main window. |
| 01.07 | To open EEschema, go to the top panel. Click on EEschema tab. |
| 01.17 | An info dialog box will appear which says that it cannot find the schematic.
|
| 01.21 | Click on OK. |
| 01.24 | I will use the circuit schematic of Astable multivibrator which was created earlier. |
| 01.30 | To do this, I will go to the File menu, click on Open. |
| 01.37 | I will bring this window in the visible area. |
| 01.44 | Choose the folder in which the file is saved. |
| 01.50 | and click on Open. |
| 01.55 | This will open the circuit schematic. |
| 01.57 | I will zoom in using the scroll button of the mouse |
| 02.02 | We have already generated the netlist for this circuit. |
| 02.07 | Let us now look at the process of mapping the components used in the schematic with footprints. |
| 02.14 | Footprint is the actual layout of the component which is placed in the Printed Circuit Board. |
| 02.21 | To start mapping of the components, |
| 02.24 | Go to the top panel of EEschema window. |
| 02.28 | Click on the Run Cvpcb button. |
| 02.33 | This will open the Cvpcb window. |
| 02.37 | It will also open a dialog box titled Component Library Error. |
| 02.42 | Click on OK button to close it. |
| 02.47 | Notice that it opens project1.net file. Please recall that we had generated this file in the netlist generation tutorial. |
| 02.58 | The Cvpcb window is divided into two panels. |
| 03.03 | The first column in the left panel is the serial number. |
| 03.07 | The second column shows reference id for list of components used in schematic. |
| 03.14 | The third column shows values of the corresponding components. |
| 03.19 | The right panel gives a list of footprints available. |
| 03.25 | Now we will map the components with their associated footprints. |
| 03.30 | We can see list of footprints available for selected component (i.e) C1 in the right part of Cvpcb window. |
| 03.41 | We will now view footprint corresponding to the selected component. |
| 03.45 | On the top panel of Cvpcb window click on View selected footprint |
| 03.53 | This will open footprint window which displays the image of footprint selected. |
| 04.02 | We can also see images of different footprints by clicking on them |
| 04.12 | I will close footprint window now. |
| 04.15 | For the first component C1, we will choose the footprint C1 from right panel. |
| 04.22 | To assign C1 footprint to first component, double click on the footprint. |
| 04.27 | As you can see, C1 footprint gets assigned to the first component in the list. |
| 04.34 | Similarly for second component C2 also we will choose footprint C1 by double clicking on it. |
| 04.43 | For the next component D1 we choose LED hyphen 3MM. |
| 04.50 | For connector P1 we choose SIL hyphen 2 from the right panel. |
| 05.02 | I will scroll down in the right panel to select it. |
| 05.09 | For R1 we choose R3. |
| 05.13 | For R2 we choose R3. |
| 05.17 | For R3 we choose R3. |
| 05.22 | For U1 i.e. LM555 we choose DIP hyphen 8 underscore 300 underscore ELL which is a standard eight pin IC footprint. |
| 05.38 | Now we will save the netlist by clicking on Save netlist and footprint files button on the top panel of Cvpcb window.
|
| 05.48 | This will open Save Net and Component List window |
| 05.54 | I will resize this window for better view.
|
| 06.00 | Click on Save to save this file. This will save the file and also close the Cvpcb window automatically. |
| 06.13 | Now the netlist is updated with footprints information. |
| 06.18 | Here the process of mapping the components is complete. |
| 06.21 | Go to the EEschema window. Now close this window. |
| 06.29 | Also close the KiCad main window. |
| 06.35 | This brings us to the end of this tutorial. |
| 06.38 | In this tutorial we learnt, |
| 06.40 | To map the components with corresponding footprints using Cvpcb window
|
| 06.47 | Watch the video available at the following link |
| 06.51 | It summarises the Spoken Tutorial project |
