Pambuyo pa chaka cha chitukuko, kutulutsidwa kwa dongosolo laulere lothandizira makompyuta la ma board osindikizidwa a KiCad 7.0.0 lasindikizidwa. Aka ndi koyamba kutulutsidwa kofunikira pulojekitiyi itakhala pansi pa mapiko a Linux Foundation. Zomanga zimakonzekera magawo osiyanasiyana a Linux, Windows ndi macOS. Khodiyo imalembedwa mu C++ pogwiritsa ntchito laibulale ya wxWidgets ndipo ili ndi chilolezo pansi pa layisensi ya GPLv3.
KiCad imapereka zida zosinthira mabwalo amagetsi ndi matabwa osindikizira, mawonekedwe a 3D a bolodi, kugwira ntchito ndi laibulale yazinthu zamagetsi zamagetsi, kuwongolera ma tempuleti a Gerber, kufananiza magwiridwe antchito amagetsi, kukonza matabwa osindikizidwa ndi kasamalidwe ka polojekiti. Pulojekitiyi imaperekanso malaibulale azinthu zamagetsi, mapazi ndi zitsanzo za 3D. Malinga ndi opanga ena a PCB, pafupifupi 15% yamaoda amabwera ndi schematics yokonzedwa mu KiCad.
Zosintha pakutulutsa kwatsopano zikuphatikiza:
- Mu akonzi a mabwalo, matabwa osindikizidwa ozungulira ndi mafelemu amtundu, ndizotheka kugwiritsa ntchito ma fonti aliwonse.
- Thandizo la zilembo zamawu awonjezedwa kwa okonza schematics ndi PCB.
- Thandizo lowonjezera la 3Dconnexion SpaceMouse, mtundu wa mbewa poyendera madera a 3D ndi XNUMXD. Thandizo pakusintha kwapadera kwa SpaceMouse kwawonekera mumkonzi wamakonzedwe, laibulale yazizindikiro, mkonzi wa PCB ndi wowonera XNUMXD. Kugwira ntchito ndi SpaceMouse pakadali pano kumapezeka pa Windows ndi macOS (mtsogolomo, pogwiritsa ntchito libspacenav, ikukonzekera kugwiranso ntchito pa Linux).
- Kutoleredwa kwa chidziwitso chokhudza momwe ntchitoyo ikugwiritsidwira ntchito zimaperekedwa kuti ziwonetsedwe m'malipoti omwe amatumizidwa ngati zayimitsidwa mwachilendo. Pulatifomu ya Sentry imagwiritsidwa ntchito kutsata zochitika, kusonkhanitsa zidziwitso zolakwika ndikupanga zinyalala zowonongeka. Deta yakuwonongeka kwa KiCad imakonzedwa pogwiritsa ntchito Sentry cloud service (SaaS). M'tsogolomu, zikukonzekera kugwiritsa ntchito Sentry kusonkhanitsa ma telemetry okhala ndi ma metric a magwiridwe antchito omwe amawonetsa zambiri zautali womwe malamulo ena amatenga kuti agwire. Kutumiza malipoti pakali pano kukupezeka muzomanga za Windows zokha ndipo kumafuna chilolezo cha ogwiritsa ntchito (kulowa).
- Kutha kuyang'ana zokha zosintha zamaphukusi omwe adayikidwa ndikuwonetsa zidziwitso zowalimbikitsa kuwayika kwawonjezedwa ku Plugin and Content Manager. Mwachikhazikitso, chekeyo imayimitsidwa ndipo imafuna kuyambitsa pazokonda.
- Kuthandizira kwamafayilo osuntha mumachitidwe a Drag & Drop awonjezedwa pamawonekedwe a projekiti, okonza mapulani ndi osindikizidwa, owonera mafayilo a Gerber ndi mkonzi wamawonekedwe.
- Misonkhano ya macOS imaperekedwa, yopangidwira zida za Apple zochokera ku Apple M1 ndi M2 ARM chips.
- Chida chosiyana cha kicad-cli chawonjezedwa kuti chigwiritsidwe ntchito m'malemba ndi zochita zokha kuchokera pamzere wolamula. Ntchito zimaperekedwa kutumiza dera ndi zinthu za PCB mumitundu yosiyanasiyana.
- Osintha azithunzi ndi zizindikiro tsopano amathandizira zoyambira ndi rectangle ndi bwalo.
- Khalidwe lamakono la orthogonal drag (offset tsopano imayika nyimbo mopingasa ndi kusintha kwamakona ndi kusinthasintha kwa mawonekedwe).
- Chizindikiro chowongolera chakulitsa kuthekera kolumikizidwa ndi tebulo la pini. Anawonjezera kuthekera kosefa mapini kutengera mayunitsi a muyeso, kusintha magawo amiyeso ya mapini patebulo, kupanga ndi kuchotsa mapini pagulu la zizindikiro, ndikuwona kuchuluka kwa mapini omwe ali m'magulu.
- Onjezani cheke chatsopano cha ERC kuti muchenjeze poyika chizindikiro pogwiritsa ntchito mauna osagwirizana (mwachitsanzo, mauna osagwirizana angayambitse zovuta pakulumikizana).
- Anawonjezera njira yosinthira kondakitala ndi madigiri 45 ndendende (m'mbuyomu, kuzungulira pamzere wowongoka kapena kumangokhalira kumathandizidwa).
- Mawonekedwe a Add Do Not Populate (DNP) kuti alembe zizindikiro pazithunzi zomwe sizingaphatikizidwe m'mafayilo agawo omwe apangidwa. Zizindikiro za DNP zimawonetsedwa mumtundu wopepuka pazithunzi.
- Anawonjezera mkonzi wachitsanzo chofananira ("Simulation Model"), womwe umakupatsani mwayi wokonza magawo achitsanzo chofananira m'mawonekedwe azithunzi, osayika mafotokozedwe am'mawu mujambula.
- Anawonjezera kuthekera kolumikiza zizindikiro ku database yakunja pogwiritsa ntchito mawonekedwe a ODBC. Zizindikiro zamitundu yosiyanasiyana zimathanso kulumikizidwa ku library imodzi wamba.
- Thandizo lowonjezera lowonetsera ndikusaka makonda pawindo losankha chizindikiro.
- Adawonjezera kuthekera kogwiritsa ntchito maulalo a hypertext pachithunzichi.
- Thandizo labwino la mtundu wa PDF. Thandizo lowonjezera la ma bookmarks (tebulo la zomwe zili mkati) mu chowonera PDF. Kutha kutumiza zidziwitso zamasimbo ozungulira ku PDF kwakhazikitsidwa. Zowonjezera zothandizira maulalo akunja ndi amkati.
- Kuwonjezedwa kwa phazi kosasinthasintha kuti muzindikire mapazi omwe amasiyana ndi laibulale yolumikizidwa.
- Tabu yosiyana yawonjezedwa ku board ndi osintha mapazi omwe ali ndi mndandanda wa mayeso omwe sananyalanyazidwe ku DRC.
- Thandizo lowonjezera la miyeso ya radial.
- Anawonjezera kuthekera kutembenuza zinthu zamawu pa bolodi losindikizidwa.
- Anawonjezera njira kuti mudzaze zone zokha.
- Zida zotsogola za PCB. Anawonjezera kuthekera kowonetsa chithunzi chakumbuyo kuti chikhale chosavuta kukopera maulalo a bolodi kapena malo am'mbali kuchokera pa bolodi yolozera mukasintha mainjiniya. Thandizo lowonjezera la kusuntha kwathunthu kwa mapazi ndi kumaliza njanji yokha.
- Gulu latsopano lawonjezedwa kwa PCB mkonzi posaka ndi chigoba ndi kusefa zinthu.
- Gulu latsopano losinthira katundu wawonjezedwa ku PCB mkonzi.
- Zida zowonjezera zogawira, kulongedza ndi kuyenda kwa mapazi.
- Chida chotumizira kunja mumtundu wa STEP chasamutsidwira ku injini ya PCB yodziwika bwino ndi KiCad.
