kimχ micro lid KiCad project template

This template lets you create lid expansion boards for the kimχ micro i.MX8M Mini SBC.

This project should include everything you need to make an expansion board, including an eeprom that can be used to identify your lid and automatically load the correct configuration files (with some software work to support this).

How to use this project

This project is to be used with KiCad's "New Project from Template" function.

Download with GitHub

On GitHub you can select Clone or Download -> Download Zip. Then expand the archive and move it into your user's KiCad templates directory: $HOME/kicad/template/. You may have to create this directory if it doesn't exist.

In KiCad, select File > New Project > New Project From Template, and select User Templates. You can then select the kimχ micro - LID project in this list.

Clone with GitHub

Alternatively, you can create a new GitHub project from this template by selecting Use This Template, above. From there you clone the new project locally and open it directly with KiCad.

Questions

How big is the Kimchi ulid PCB?

It measures 65 × 32 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Kimchi ulid use?

10 parts, built around the 24C32 and PMEG1020EH. 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 Kimchi ulid KiCad files?

From the groupgets/kimchi-micro-lid repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is kimchi_ulid.kicad_pcb and its schematic kimchi_ulid.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Kimchi ulid design in my own project?

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