This workshop introduces students to KiCad, an open-source tool used to design electronic schematics and printed circuit boards (PCBs). Participants will learn how to create a basic schematic, lay out a PCB, and understand how digital designs translate into physical hardware. The session emphasizes hands-on learning and real-world applications of electronics design.
Basic understanding of circuitry is needed to design PCBs.
See this youtube video for starting background knowledge.
