Buildbotics Controller Schematics & PCB Layout
The top-level schematic is in the file buildbotics_controller.sch
. To view
and edit the schematics run:
make schematics
You must have make
and the GEDA tools install. Other make commands are:
pcb
- Open the PCB editor.bom
- Create Bill of Materials asbuildbotics_controller.bom
.net
- Generate the netlist asbuildbotics_controller.net
.drc
- Run the Design Rule Checker.layout
- Initialize the PCB layout.attrib
- Edit schematic part attributes.zip
- Create a zip file from the Gerber and drill files.tidy
- Remove all backup files.clean
- Remove all autogenerated files.
Configuration notes
Copy the system gnetlistrc file:
mkdir -p ~/.gEDA
cp /etc/gEDA/system-gnetlistrc ~/.gEDA/gnetlistrc
Edit ~/.gEDA/gnetlistrc
and comment out (insert semicolon) the line that
reads:
(hierarchy-netattrib-mangle "enabled")
and uncomment the line that reads:
;(hierarchy-netattrib-mangle "disabled")
The resulting lines should look like this:
;(hierarchy-netattrib-mangle "enabled")
(hierarchy-netattrib-mangle "disabled")
This allows power and ground rails to be routed between schematics without
mangling the names. Note, that as a consequence of this setting you cannot
use net
attributes in any schematic modules that are used more than once
with out having them all connected together.
Set the library path in PCB to point to the local footprints folder. Use
File->Preferences->Library
in PCB to do this.
