KiCad Board Fix & Update

Job ID: 39765778

Budget: $10 – $30 USD

I’m working with a 2-layer circuit board carrying just 43 parts. The design has run reliably for a while, but after I added surface-mount headers to host a W5500 Ethernet module the board stopped responding. Continuity checks with a multimeter point to routing mistakes on the new header channels.

You will receive the original KiCad PCB layout (no schematic file is available) and a brief note on the intended signal mapping. I need you to:
• Trace and correct the faulty nets around the W5500 header.
• Replace the existing header footprints with 2.4 mm-pitch through-hole versions and make any clearance or keep-out adjustments those larger pads require.
• Run DRC, confirm there are no shorts or opens, and regenerate fabrication outputs—updated KiCad project, Gerbers, pick-and-place, and BOM.

Acceptance is straightforward: the revised layout must pass KiCad’s default DRC, show correct connectivity on the repaired nets, and include the new through-hole headers in the PCB and BOM. Once that’s met, the job is done and the board can go straight to fabrication.
