Work-in-progress repository with output of altium2kicad conversion of the Cryptech Alpha rev03 board. The conversion was done using 'convert.sh', with the Altium Designer project files from https://wiki.cryptech.is/browser/hardware/cad/rev03 and the altium2kicad project from https://github.com/thesourcerer8/altium2kicad Current status -------------- NOTE: The latest stable KiCAD version as of this writing is 4.0.7 - it does NOT include necessary support for stitching vias. Install KiCAD nightly build to work with the Cryptech Alpha PCB. The schematics are successfully converted. All the copper layers convert reasonably well. The challenges are mostly around filled polygons on the various layers. A python script (fix-pcb.py) modifies parameters to get a fairly close result. Importing WRL files (3D models) required some hacking of the altium2kicad tool that I haven't been able to work on upstreaming yet. Another hack that has not been upstreamed is loading more of the source files, IIRC to get all component footprints properly converted. Issues ------ Two layers (Altium Gerber files CrypTech.G1 and CrypTech.G2) have fills that I have not been able to reproduce. I targeted not missing any copper, accepting that the KiCAD gerber fills reach more places, so add some copper on those layers. Drill hole sizes have not been checked. KiCAD seems to add ~0.85 mil more clearance around vias. This needs to be double checked but I'm hoping that we can just tolerate that.
