#15 How To Optimize PCB in KiCad 7.0 For Beginners | #PCBCupid

This video is a part of KiCad 7 tutorial series, Which will take you through the journey of learning KiCad 7 from scratch to making your first Printed Circuit Board.

At 10:57 there's a small correction, the graphics depicts the radius not the diameter ('Dia').

In this particular video, We'll discuss how to optimize the PCB with SMD components. Which involves finding the right SMD package depending on power rating, PCB size / footprint size, assembly and finally the cost.
