As for documents to test against the classic BeagleBone Black sources seen above can be found at on GitHub. If you’d like to try out this nifty new feature for yourself, CNX has a great walkthrough starting at building KiCad from source. And back in January another user left a comment with links to four other (non-KiCad) tools to handle Altium files. His new work is a translation of the Perl plugin altium2kicad by. The PCB has a MCU that receives data from two SPI radio modules and relays the data to USB, Ethernet and Bluetooth for further processing on a PC. It requires starting the schematic editor (eeschema) or the pcb editor (pcbnew) in standalone mode (on Windows directly from the Windows Start menu item) and using File Import.
