This section will cover a new PCB design using SMD components. I will also discuss creating the data for automated assembly.
... 0:00 Introduction
0:30 The new design
2:53 Starting with the placement (as in Part 2)
41:25 Starting with the trace routing, important trace without solder mask for higher current
45:40 Horizontal/vertical orientation, top/bottom
1:10:30 Avoiding antennas on GND, creating do-off areas
1:14:11 Uploading the Gerber data, SMD assembly using the JLCPCB as an example
1:15:17 BOM and CPL files
1:15:59 Comparison of generated files
1:19:36 Adjusting the assembly data and parts
1:21:35 Previewing the placement and adjusting the files
1:23:57 Summary

Software used: KiCad 5 and Gerbv
