P's and S's
Problem : You have a niche circuit component that you can't find in the KiCad Schematic maker (Symbol Library).
- S : Check this Github repo it contains everything you're gonna need as a 296 student.
You can import a symbol from the library by opening the symbol library (the op-amp icon in the top toolbar) and then clicking [File] → [Add Library]
Problem: You are having issues getting your barebones Arduino blink test to work.
- S : We found the easiest method of troubleshooting any possible circuit building mistakes by comparing to the schematic given on the tutorial page. The clock might be faulty if you have sync errors when trying to upload the code onto the Arduino. If you have confirmed all the parts are wired together correctly, and the code uploads successfully, but the LED still won't blink, you probably have the code wrong. Make sure the code addresses the correct pin in which the test led is wired to. We used this diagram.
