Time	Narration
00:01	Dear Friends, 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', 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 summarizes the Spoken Tutorial project.
06:56	If you do not have good bandwidth, you can download and watch it.
