A comprehensive KiCad Library for the Raspberry Pi Pico 🥧

Providing footprints, symbols, and models for the module in its various forms and implementations

Features

  • KiCad 7.0 support
  • Schematics with alternate pin definitions to select more specific behaviours for each GPIO, as well as specify power directionality
  • Generic and specific footprints for the Pico and Pico W
    • Through-hole and surface-mount footprints with and without mounting holes
    • Hand-solderable test points (ie. USB signals) in footprints with underside castellations
    • Optional pin labels as an add-on footprint
    • Optional keepout zone for 2.4 GHz RF on shared footprints
    • Ability to add individual schematic symbols for sockets, and a virtual Pico for the BOM and rendering
  • Diverse 3D models for surface-mount, through-hole, and socketed forms of the Pico, Pico H, Pico W, and Pico WH using photorealistic materials
  • Majority adherence to the KiCad Library Conventions version 3.0.41

How do I use this library?

  • Ensure you are running KiCad 7.0 or later
  • If not already created, create a new KiCad project
  • Move the root library directory RaspberryPi_Pico/ to a folder anywhere within your KiCad project

    If using the library globally, move RaspberryPi_Pico/ to a globally accessible location

  • Open the relevant KiCad project
  • Select Preferences > Manage Footprint Libraries...
  • Select the Project Specific Libraries tab

    If using the library globally, select the Global Librarires tab instead

  • Click the folder icon in the lower left to Add Existing
  • Navigate to and select .../RaspberryPi_Pico/Module_RaspberryPi_Pico.pretty/
  • Click OK
  • Select Preferences > Manage Symbol Libraries...
  • Select the Project Specific Libraries tab

    If using the library globally, select the Global Libaries tab instead

  • Click the folder icon in the lower left to Add existing library to table
  • Navigate to and select .../RaspberryPi_Pico/MCU_Module_RaspberryPi_Pico.kicad_sym
  • Click OK

To use, simply add a symbol to your schematic as you would any other; symbols should be located under the section MCU_Module_RaspberryPi_Pico, and footprints under Module_RaspberryPi_Pico.

You're all set to design exciting new circuit boards using the Raspberry Pi Pico! 🎉
