About the Hat
Hat is an open source PCB design by glovepost, published on GitHub under the MIT license. It is a 4-layer board measuring 108 × 115.8 mm, with 83 components from 16 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the SK6805SIDE-G-001, PN5321A3HN/C106,51, CAP1188-1-CP-TR and 74LVC1T45DW-7. By type, the board carries 45 capacitors, 26 ICs, 7 resistors, 2 inductors, 1 crystal and 1 antenna.
It belongs with the dev boards & breakouts designs in this gallery.
From the project
KiCAD EDA automatic component placement tool
atoplace is an intelligent orchestration layer for PCB design that bridges the gap between schematic and physical layout. It automates the tedious 80% of design—placement optimization and DFM validation—while strictly adhering to "Manhattan" aesthetics and Signal Integrity (SI) best practices.
Designed to work seamlessly with atopile and KiCad.
PCB layout automation has historically been "black box" and "messy"—producing organic, unreadable layouts that professional engineers reject. atoplace takes a different approach:
