Overview

easyeda2kicad is a Python script that converts electronic components from EasyEDA or LCSC to a Kicad library, including 3D models. This tool aims to speed up the PCB design workflow, especially when using JLCPCB SMT assembly services. It supports library formats for both Kicad v6.x and Kicad v5.x.

Features

Converts electronic components from EasyEDA or LCSC to a Kicad library
Supports library formats for Kicad v6.x and Kicad v5.x
Includes 3D models of the components
Option to specify output library path
Ability to update existing component symbols/footprints in a Kicad library
Generates symbol libraries in legacy format for Kicad v5.x

Summary

easyeda2kicad is a Python script that simplifies the process of converting electronic components from EasyEDA or LCSC to a Kicad library. It provides a convenient way to speed up the PCB design workflow, particularly when using JLCPCB SMT assembly services. The tool supports both Kicad v6.x and Kicad v5.x library formats and includes 3D models of the components. Additionally, it offers options to specify output library paths and update existing component symbols/footprints in a Kicad library. However, it is important to note that the correctness of the converted symbols and footprints cannot be guaranteed, and it is always advisable to double-check the generated footprints and symbols.
