Overview
PCM3060 is an open-source printed circuit board by bread-modular, from the bread-modular/bread-modular repository on GitHub, published under the MIT licence. It is a 2-layer board of 16.3 × 36.6 mm with 3 parts on 28 nets, routed with 92 tracks and 0 vias.
It is built around the PCM3060PW. Its parts include 2 connectors and 1 IC. It belongs with the audio and music boards of this library.
Main components
1README
README.mdBread Modular
An open-source hardware modular synthesizer format designed to be minimalistic and cost-effective: USB-powered, breadboard-friendly, with analog/digital modules and MIDI alongside CV & Gate.
Find your starting point
- Build or explore: modules, specification, common parts.
- Set up KiCad libraries: workspace/library setup. Projects
use the shared
opt/fp-lib-table; initialization copies local submodules rather than cloning them. - Check/export/source parts: KiCad toolkit.
Canonical tools, JLCPCB utilities and skills live under
opt/kicad-tools/.
KiCad quick start
python3 -B opt/kicad-tools/kicad_tools.py --help
python3 -B opt/kicad-tools/kicad_tools.py doctor
python3 -B opt/kicad-tools/kicad_tools.py export --helpPython + installed KiCad CLI; no extra packages for core tools. Private checks,
Gerber/BOM/CPL export, native netlist helpers and read-only sourcing have
distinct requirements and safety boundaries.
Exports are not electrical/release/order approval; keep frozen module scripts
and production designs untouched. Historical opt/kicad-jlcpcb and
.agents/skills/{kicad-workflow,jlcpcb-assembly} resolve through
relative compatibility symlinks.
Agents: start with the KiCad workflow skill or assembly skill, then actual CLI help.

Project image and full feature overview
- Modular design: Just like Eurorack.
- USB-powered: It can be portable.
- Minimal design: Cost-effective.
- Modular MIDI support: Communicate between modules; CV & Gate still supported.
- Analog and digital signal paths: It’s your choice.
- Diverse built-in modules: A wide range of pre-designed modules.
- Configurable digital modules: Voice and CV using AtTiny 1616 or ESP32.
- Fully open source: Schematics, PCB designs and code.
- Ease of customization: Create modules tailored to your needs.
- No case required: Use directly on a breadboard or a simple base module.

Questions
How big is the PCM3060 PCB?
It measures 16.3 × 36.6 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the PCM3060 use?
3 parts, built around the PCM3060PW. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the PCM3060 KiCad files?
From the bread-modular/bread-modular repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is opt/Breakouts/PCM3060/PCM3060/PCM3060.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the PCM3060 design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
