In this video, which is a continuation from the retro 6502 repeater project, we take a look at auto routing using KiCad PCB Editor. We use the Java application FreeRouting.jar to create new tracks automatically.
The FreeRouting Java app is available within the LayoutEditor software package here:
layouteditor.com/
You can install that package and then simply locate and copy one file : freerouting.jar
You can then (if you wish) remove the package. Checkout Layout Editor too. Its not just for PCB layouts.
Then finally, we export the output files as Gerber format and .DRL drill files.
We then compress all output files into a single zip file to give to the PCB manufacturer.

Leave a comment! Do you like long format videos or would you rather see smaller 10-20 minute ones. What kind of content would you like to see? More digital, more analog, CPU/MCU? Let me know.
