About the I/O Expansion Board

I/O Expansion Board is an open source PCB design by INTI-CMNB, published on GitHub under the BSD-3-Clause license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 16.8 × 18.4 mm, with 31 components from 18 distinct parts.

Other key parts include the MCP1252-ADJ. By type, the board carries 13 capacitors, 10 resistors, 2 transistors, 2 connectors, 2 switches and 1 IC.

From the project

This is a CI/CD test for KiCad using KiBot and other tools. As example we took the Spora project and applied the concepts.

This project is a demo of CI/CD for KiCad

Automate the following tasks: ERC and DRC checks PDF versions of the schematic and PCB for documentation * Generation of fabrication files (BoMs, gerbers, drill, position, 3D model, etc.)

To automate the process here we use: KiBot to generate gerbers, drill, position files and BoMs (HTML, XLSX and CSV) kicad-automation-scripts to run DRC/ERC, print schematics and PCB InteractiveHtmlBom to generate interactive HTML BoMs PcbDraw to generate the PCB previews using different colors Docker to integrate KiCad and all the tools in a single package suitable…
