AB - Sharing hardware designs is difficult because the market for Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools is fragmented and mostly dominated by proprietary tools with incompatible formats. The workshop explores the current landscape of free software tools for EDA, with an emphasis on KiCad, an application for Printed Circuit Board (PCB) design. We will design a complete PCB from scratch using KiCad. If time allows and there is enough interest, we will also look at tools for Hardware Description Language (HDL) simulation and SPICE or SPICE-like analog simulation of circuits.
