From the project
Breakout board for the DM13A LED driver, for use with MobiFlight
Breakout board for the DM13A LED driver, for use with MobiFlight. This is completely untested and not intended for real-world use. The goal of this repo was to explore using KiCad 9 command line tools to automate releases of the design, including schematics, board images, and JLCPCB fabrication files.
- A VSCode devcontainer is included that includes the kicad-cli command for local development. - A tasks.json file is included to enable quick local testing of the jobset generation. - Outputs are defined using KiCad jobsets. - Variables are used to specify a version and date stamp. These are…
