Background
I am attempting to create a hobbyist PCB (Printed Circuit Board). I'm using some components which I will provide so end-user can assemble them on a PCB (through-hole soldering them on).
My components are a lot of things like the following real-time clock (RTC) component which are easy to use on a breadboard.
Some Part Symbols Not Available
However, I don't have a way to get symbol files for these types of parts.
I know that the pitch of a stand breadboard holes is something like 2.54mm (so pins are 2.54mm apart).
I'm wondering what the best way to add 6 holes (number of pins in RTC) to my kicad drawing so they are the correct distance?
And, is that basically the proper way to do this?
Here's the very beginning of my PCB in kicad so far with components I was able to download:
- 40-pin MCU (ATMega4809)
- momentary push button
