====== KiCad Footprint Assignments ====== These are the footprint assignments I use based on the standard KiCad libraries and the parts I commonly use: ^ Part ^ Footprint ^ Notes ^ | //Mounting Holes// ||| | M2.5 spacers | ''MountingHole:MountingHole_2.7mm_M2.5'' | | | Eurorack FP drill holes | ''MountingHole:MountingHole_3.2mm_M3'' | | | //Connectors// ||| | Eurorack shrouded power connector | ''Connector_IDC:IDC-Header_2x08_P2.54mm_Vertical'' | Reverse* | | Board connections | ''Connector_PinSocket_2.54mm:PinSocket_1x0n_P2.54mm_Vertical'' | Main board | | | ''Connector_PinHeader_2.54mm:PinHeader_1x0n_P2.54mm_Vertical'' | Control board, reverse | | Thonkiconn jack | ''Connector_Audio:Jack_3.5mm_QingPu_WQP-PJ398SM_Vertical_CircularHoles'' | drill out the keepout | | Test point | ''TestPoint:TestPoint_Loop_D2.50mm_Drill1.0mm'' | Reverse and label | | //Resistors// ||| | 1% 1/4W | ''Resistor_THT:R_Axial_DIN0204_L3.6mm_D1.6mm_P2.54mm_Vertical'' | I use this as the default | | | ''Resistor_THT:R_Axial_DIN0204_L3.6mm_D1.6mm_P7.62mm_Horizontal'' | To route tracks under the part | | Control pot | ''Potentiometer_THT:Potentiometer_Alps_RK09L_Single_Vertical'' | | | Trim pots | ''Potentiometer_THT:Potentiometer_Bourns_3296X_Horizontal'' | Main board | | | ''Potentiometer_THT:Potentiometer_Bourns_3296W_Vertical'' | Control board | | //Capacitors// ||| | Ceramic | ''Capacitor_THT:C_Disc_D4.7mm_W2.5mm_P5.00mm'' | Typically power | | Film | ''Capacitor_THT:C_Rect_L7.2mm_W2.5mm_P5.00mm'' | Typically all others | | Electrolytic | ''Capacitor_THT:CP_Radial_D5.0mm_P2.50mm'' | Good for the power, check others sizes | | //Diodes// ||| | Schottky | ''Diode_THT:D_DO-41_SOD81_P10.16mm_Horizontal'' | Good for the power, check others sizes | | Signal | ''Diode_THT:D_DO-35_SOD27_P7.62mm_Horizontal'' | | | LED | ''LED_THT:LED_D3.0mm_FlatTop'' | | | //Transistors, etc// ||| | TO-92 package | ''Package_TO_SOT_THT:TO-92_Inline_Wide'' | JLCPCB does not support the tolerances | ---- * Ensure you connect reversed parts with F.Cu tracks and a Via to connect to the rest of the B.Cu tracks.
