Stratum 0 KiCad Library

How to use

  • Start your KiCad project as always.
  • Add this library as a submodule to your project git. The submodule is intended to be in the same directory as the .kicad_pro -file.
  • Add the schematic and PCB libraries as project/local libs to your project.
  • Since this project is a submodule changes in the library will not result in changes to your project until you update the submodule.

How to contribute

  • Just create a MR for this repo.
  • There will be a short review for consistency, but we will not check the actual design.

Design rules

  • Please follow the https://klc.kicad.org/ when creating new symbols / footprints. (But we will not be so picky if you don't.)

  • Every symbol must have a fooprint associated. (Some exceptions may be possible.)

  • Every specific (non-standard) part (IC, some connectors) must have the following fields:

    • "Manufacturer"
    • "MPN" (Manufacturer Part Number)

  • Every part can contain the following fields:

    • Distributors (Containing Distributor names and their part numbers)

  • Every specific part must have a datasheet link. Datasheets can either be a link to the manufacturers website. Or better: Datasheets can be placed in the datasheets/ -directory and linked using a relative path.

  • Footprints shold have a 3D-model.

License

We follow the KiCad Library License. This is CC-BY-SA 4.0 with the exception that designs based on this library can be licensed in any arbitrary license (even closed!). This also allows us to cross-use part of the KiCad Library here.
