Let's Get Technical
KiCad is a free development software for electronic design automation (EDA) that I have been looking around into to designing my final year school project (more on that later) schematics. KiCad is extensively developed and used almost exclusively by CERN! With a lot of online documentation, support and large communities, the experience of using this software has been mostly uncomplicated and a lot of fun.
If you’re reading this message that means you’ve stumbled upon my first post. At the writing of this post, I’m called Symon Muthemba and I’m a student pursuing a Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the arguably prestigious Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology in Kenya. I’m 23 years old and in my final year of school. Now that that’s out of the way, I need to address the reason for the existence of this website. Despite my well-functioning memory, I realized that a lot of what I learn is eventually forgotten and not fully understood and appreciated. This website will serve as my personal collection of notes from the research and projects I will be participating (have participated) in that are in line with my interests. It will also serve as a conduit in which I share my thoughts and ideas on certain topics with the open world. My current interests are in the fields of signals and RF (radio frequency) engineering, circuit design, low level programming and electrical engineering in general. I will post on a regular basis as I learn the ropes to become a professional engineer. Let’s get technical!
