Introduction: Customize Your PCB Shape With Easy Steps (Full Beginner Toutorial)

By ICARUS SCHOOL
About: Hello Everyone, My name is Abdelrahman but you can call me ICARUS. I love making new and crazy stuff, my passion is tinkering and making. Joined to maker community in 2019, feel free to text me Luv U all

This PCB will be slightly different from other PCBs so Keep Reading carefully

The Component I need

In this tutorial, you will learn various skills that will make up your PCB design skills

This tutorial is meant for beginners and intermediate, we will go through a lot of things so keep attention


Supplies

  • ATTINY 44
  • 6POS 2-Raw Male Header for ISP
  • Right-Angle Male Header 0.1" for FTDI
  • 10Kohm Pullup Resistor
  • LED
  • 1uf Bypass/Decoupling Capacitor
  • ISP Programmer

Step 1: PCB Design

For detailed Steps I recommend to Visit these two toutorials Tout1Tout2


open KiCAd



Strat to add Fab modules library



Start to add the Components we need



Check the Connections and see if there is an Erorr or not



After that Open Fusion 360 Draw the Shape you like And then Save It as a DXF file



Import the DXF shape to KiCad to make the Connection of the Circuit Inside our shape



Then Export the Gerper Files



Then after that take the two output images



then Open FAB MODULES


Then Upload the Top layer and choose the output (for me it's role and mill)

Then Choose the PCB Traces (1/64)


Then make your Preferences and Press Calculate


then Send it to the machine



and then make the same thing in the outline

Step 2: Soldering the PCB

after we Designed out PCB we Fabricate it



and then solder the Component on it



we will use USB ASP to Program the Circuit


We will open AVR DUDES to see if our Circuit working or not (detect the ATTINY44)

Then we will upload our code to the circuit by Arduino IDE

Step 3: Embedded Programming

There will be a full tutorial on Embedded programming on Embedded C

Stay tuned for this Tutorial
