Setting Operations up for Success With the KiCad Software Program

Via Technology Inc. uses the KiCad software program to create electronic circuit designs that meet our clients’ technical requirements. This open-source platform enables our engineers to develop schematics and printed circuit boards efficiently. 

Electronic Design Automation With KiCad Software

Originally developed in France by researcher Jean-Pierre Charras and promoted by the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), KiCad offers professional-grade capabilities for electronic design automation. Our team uses this platform alongside industry-standard solutions to give clients flexibility in their PCB design service workflows.

KiCad’s user-friendly platform handles multiple functions:

  • Schematic creation: Build circuit diagrams from single sheets to hierarchical designs with hundreds of components.
  • PCB layout tools: Route traces, manage layer stacks and optimize component placement for manufacturability.
  • 3D visualization: Preview mechanical fit and inspect board assemblies before fabrication to reduce costly revisions.
  • Integrated simulation: Verify circuit performance with SPICE analysis and catch design errors early.

KiCad operates on Windows, Linux and macOS platforms, so we can collaborate with clients regardless of their internal systems. KiCad’s compatibility with other formats means we can also integrate the software into workflows that use Altium DesignerOrCAD and Cadence Allegro for project flexibility.

Key Advantages of Using KiCad for Circuit Board Design

KiCad eliminates licensing fees that can strain project budgets. Clients benefit from reduced overhead costs while maintaining access to professional-grade design features. This makes the software particularly valuable for startups and organizations managing multiple projects.

The KiCad software program stores project files in open formats that remain accessible without vendor lock-in. Users can access thousands of pre-built component symbols and footprints in its official libraries.
