Handling Disconnections in KiCad with Rat Bites and Conductive Screws
Hi, I've got a KiCad project (revised 1-inch-midi) that I've been working on that involves 3 boards separated by rat bites. Ground, VCC and two signal pins are passed between the boards via conductive screws nuts. While I think I have a functional design, the error checking function on the PCB editor shows disconnections between these pads as they are not connected as-drawn. Is there a way to put connections into the schematic layout so that the PCB editor is satisfied?
I think it will work as-is, but would be interested in any ideas/suggestions. Also I'm certainly open to any critique of the design in general, as I'm planning to order it soon. I put up an earlier version of the board here for your perusal: https://github.com/JeremySCook/PCBs/tree/main/1-inch-MIDI
