Until you actually need to route DDR, run any signal simulation model, etc.
- oscillonoscope 2y agoYou can route DDR in KiCad and there are some online reports of people doing that. KiCad is not as nice as the paid software and there are shortcomings but I think 'pretty useable' covers its status accurately.
- 15155 2y agoYou "can" make fire with a piece of string and some sticks in a pinch. I wouldn't describe this as a "pretty usable" means, however, for the same reasons KiCad is unusable for DDR routing.
- oscillonoscope 2y agoI think that's hyperbolic. There are several designs advertised as being designed in KiCAD that have DDR which means there are way more not being advertised. https://www.kicad.org/made-with-kicad/categories/Single-board-Computer/ https://www.kicad.org/made-with-kicad/categories/Single-boar...
