README.mdClaude PCB Designer
An AI-powered PCB design tool that uses the Claude API to drive KiCad programmatically.
Give it a hardware specification in plain English → it designs the schematic, lays out the PCB, finds/creates missing components, and generates a 3D render of the finished board.

Questions
How big is the Board v1 PCB?
It measures 170 × 170 mm and has 8 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Board v1 use?
56 parts, built around the RK3588. 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 Board v1 KiCad files?
From the muratagenc/pcb_designer repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is claude_pcb_designer/output/board/20260405_010919/board_v1.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Board v1 design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask muratagenc before reusing the design.
