That being said, there are three PCB design packages that tend to be the most popular and considered the best: Altium Designer, Eagle, and OrCad. It wants to get those symbols from a resque library, which you’ve probably removed from the project, and the -cache.lib is also missing.There are numerous software packages available for designing printed circuit boards (PCBs), too many in fact. This looks alarming, but is quite normal if a library is missing. rw-r-r- 1 paul paul 567 Dec 7 05:55 summary.rtfĪfter that I noticed a bunch of symbols in the schematic: rw-r-r- 1 paul paul 14K Dec 7 05:42 report.txt rwxrwxr-x 1 paul paul 3,3K Dec 2 20:44 Grayhill.kicad_mod rw-r-r- 1 paul paul 99K Dec 7 05:31 'FCT board.sch' rwxrwxr-x 1 paul paul 3,8K Dec 2 08:04 'FCT board.pro' rwxrwxr-x 1 paul paul 633K Dec 3 20:44 'FCT board.kicad_pcb' rwxrwxr-x 1 paul paul 43K Nov 27 14:32 Emetcon.lib Is that a thing of that fruit brand computers? ls -hl Maybe I’ll figure something out when looking at the posted project…įirst thing I noticed is that the executable flags of 4 of the files are set ? I’m not sure what the issue is, apparently some things can’t be routed to GND.

You’ve apparently been sitting on this for two weeks. Pcbnew / File / Export / Footprint Association File … and then:Įeschema / File / Import / Footprint Association File … You also have to fix the footprint links. In this case you have to change the RefDes to the same name as it first was, and then use the second match method (Re-associate by reference) to create the links between Eeschema and Pcbnew again. If you have for example deleted a diode from the schematic, and then put a scottky diode in it’s place, then both the Timestamp and RefDes are lost. This method can be used to repair broken links. This uses the RefDes (A.K.A: Reference, Reference Designator) to make the match. ( * ) Re-associate footprints by reference This is the default way for synchronization. It is just a unique number that is both present in each schematic symbol and each footprint. This uses the “Timestamp” (KiCad V5) or “UUID” (KiCad V5.99 / V6) to make the match. ( * ) Keep existing symbol to footprint associations
