Overview

First kicadfile is an open-source printed circuit board by clavinohou, from the clavinohou/first-pcb-keypad repository on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board of 140.5 × 19.1 mm with 25 parts on 44 nets, routed with 295 tracks and 35 vias.

It is built around the ATMEGA32U4-AU. Its parts include 7 capacitors, 4 resistors, 4 diodes, 2 switches and 1 IC. It belongs with the AVR (ATmega, ATtiny) boards of this library.

Volume mixer and audio controller (first pcb design)

Goals:

  • Create a pcb
  • Music controls
    • Song skip
    • Song play
    • Song pause
  • Volume control - though rotary encoder

Design:

Its basically an Arduino Pro Micro just put in the form factor that I wanted. It features 4 MX style contacts for your switches to sit on. There is also a pinout for a rotary encoder for volume adjustment. In the final design I plan to just solder wires to the rotary encoder since the knob I want wont be able to sit right next to the switches. I will make a branch with the code that I eventually use, as well as another branch for the .stl I eventually create, but for now I'm just making sure the circut board actually works.

Questions

How big is the First kicadfile PCB?

It measures 140.5 × 19.1 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the First kicadfile use?

25 parts, built around the ATMEGA32U4-AU. 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 First kicadfile KiCad files?

From the clavinohou/first-pcb-keypad repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is first kicadfile.kicad_pcb and its schematic first kicadfile.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the First kicadfile design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask clavinohou before reusing the design.
