About EDAkrill

Eda krill is a collection of smallish, user contributed EDA resources presented in a tool-neutral format. The content hosted is all user contributed. Any resource is manually checked by the site admin before the upload, so that resources are

  • not dangerous/harmful
  • legal (clean, free license)
  • accompanied by rich metadata

The site does automatic format conversions in the background and resources are packed in tarballs in various file formats to be available for as many EDA software as poissible. The site provides search by regular expression or exact text match on metadata and an API for programmers so that these resources can easily be integrated in EDA tools.

Edakrill is currently hosting:

  • printed circuit board footprints (static and parametric; tEDAx, pcb-rnd, geda/PCB, kicad)
  • pcb-rnd fonts
  • geda/PCB fonts
  • schematic symbols
  • scripts that can generate any of the above files
  • DRC scripts
  • embedded user scripts for EDA software
