Ok, First attempt at redesigning my solar charging anwaar 'slab' (working name) family to use a LiC instead of the vishay caps. I wrote up a long thread on my masto explaining the design decisions, i might try to re-post them to here.

I humbly submit Kraken & Chamaeleon in the hope that they qualify as PCB art. 😁

Working on an article involving PCB art. Anyone have great examples (or even just examples) that you'd like to share and that I can potentially include?

KiCad 9 will also come with a ton of smaller tweaks and quality-of-life improvements, like this Chamfer feature added by John Beard:

KiCad 9 also adds the ability to mark a track on an outer layer as having no soldermask. You could do this before by copying the shapes to the mask layer, but this is much faster. Thanks to Andrzej Wolski for contributing this feature.

BTW, I also converted the Rigol DS1054Z #picoCAD model into papercraft! βœ‚οΈπŸ“„

Starting sketch -> layout -> PCB -> Waveform

Board shows that attempting zero pole cancellation doesn’t work in practice. Very happy with the silkscreen and the (intentional) instability.
