- "Want to speed up the most time-consuming part of PCB design? KiCad by default does not support auto routing, but we've got a tiny hack for you!
We'll show you how to automate the process and save hours of your precious time.
How? The free routing tool! Whether you choose the standalone application or as a plugin integrated with KiCad, this tool will boost your PCB design efficiency.
In this concise guide, we'll take you through the entire process step by step. From Installing, prepare your board, dive into the user interface and finally performing auto routing! We also address the critical track challenge. While the tool may not handle impedance control and differential pairing perfectly, we'll show you how to tackle it by partially auto routing.

Do you think AI and automation will take over PCB designers any time soon?
P.S : we are trying new clickbaity thumbnails and titles 😬. We are trying our best to make sure it's not misleading. Let us know what you think about it?
There is a freerouting kicad plugin in the package manager which has better integration with pcb editor. All you have to do is just to click the autorouter icon.
Very Good.
Thank you! Cheers!
Good idea
Thank you!
Hi,
I have used auto-routing on my design and despite the fact that I have set the track width for my GND 5V and 3.3V to .3mm
and signal track widths to .2mm I noticed that autoroutes uses the same width as .2mm for GND 5V and 3.3V instead of .3mm but then when I manual route
I get correct track width of .3mm.
I wonder why ?? need I set the track width in autoroute ??
Hi
how autorouting pcb to pcb wire connection without parts
Because I want to make a conversion from the ESP32 bord to the arduino board by passing the wires from the pin of the ESP32 bord to the pin of the arduino board without parts.
Well it seems to be quite bad with anything more than 60ish tracks basically needs a ton of time or might never finish..
Yes, agreed. We faced this issue a couple of times.
Bro i am getting this error , java.lanf.NoClassDefFoundError , but already installed java in my PC
How do you set up the connection points between components?
That's we'll be done automatically based on the schematic that you design.
@pcbcupid ah! That makes sense. I'm fairly new to kicad and was trying to avoid the schematic page as it seemed like extra work but I'll give it a try!
@@stevenmiller279 Goodluck!!
Is there an automated component placement tool?
Not any I'm aware off, please don't mind dropping the link once you find any ;)

Vanilla kicad, new in 7.0
