Pufferfish Controller-1

Electronic hardware board layout files for the Pufferfish ventilator.

This folder contains the KiCad design files for the Pufferfish ventilator.

To review the hardware files, start by opening the project file Pufferfish.pro with KiCad. From there, schematics, boards, and library parts can be viewed.

Pufferfish.sch and Pufferfish.kicad_pcb are dummy files, kept to aid in managing project resources (eg. footprint and schematic library settings).

The files sym-lib-table and fp-lib-table define the paths for local part libraries.

• these should point to /library/symbols/ and /library/footprints/ for symbols and footprints, respectively.
• this only applies to projects containing in this folder and not subfolders below it.
• for each design project, its own sym-lib-table and fp-lib-table files were added pointing to: ${KIPRJMOD}/../../library/symbols/Pufferfish.lib and ${KIPRJMOD}/../../library/footprints/Pufferfish.pretty, respectively
• if this relative linking fails, an alternative way to share these library parts amongst each project is to add them to KiCad's global library path (open any project or schematic or pcb, add the appropriate library directories by going to "Preferences/Manage <Footprint/Symbol> Library", and when prompted choose global).

The file Pufferfish.kicad_wks contains the template schematic page layout for this project.
