Another mini-PCI Express library for KiCad #1

Open mithro opened 8 years ago

Hi!

I just came across your project today. Back in 2014, I also created a KiCad part library + template for the mini-PCI Express standard (which can be found at https://github.com/mithro/kicad-mini-pci-express) I never ended up making anything using this design but a couple of other people have been using it.

It seems like we should try and figure out who's part is better and try and send it to the upstream kicad part library.

What do you think?

Hi Tim, this sounds great. Based on a quick check, yours seem to be more full-featured compared to this baseboard here, probably would suggest trying to upstream yours.

I have made one board with this particular baseboard, the PCIeDuino. Will need to update the schematic to the latest KiCad version anyways, and will check if it would work with your outline / pins.
