Diptrace freeware limitations7/30/2023 ![]() KiCAD format is plain text and well documented, so it plays nice with version control systems, scripts and even user edition (like moving a part from one library to another). KiCAD is composed of 4 main programs: the schematic creator, the parts linker (logical - physical), the PCB creator and the Gerbers viewer (it's ok, but gerbv from GEDA is better). It's a very very good EDA software package, Free/Libre Software and multiplatform (GNU/Linux, MacOSX and Windows). ![]() I'm not sure what are your requirements or if you need all the advanced stuffs Altium provides (like FPGA design or the signal integrity analysis), but if you just need a good PCB designer I recommend you KiCAD. Is there any decent enough free software which I can use at home for my pet projects? I'm unfamiliar with Altium Designer, sorry, but for what I could read I think you're not going to find such a complex software for free. Looking for a good freeware/open source PCB design software equivalent to Altium.
