I did a ESchema schematic that I use more than one time a hierarchical sheet. This sheet create a already routed PCB. How can I use this already routed PCB part in the main PCB?
This is also useful to re-use design parts in other projects mine.
I found some discussion about in https://forum.kicad.info/t/hierarchical-sheets-and-pcb/6053/6 but appear to be not what I want.
@hildogjr You have linked to the right thread to solve your dilemma. https://forum.kicad.info/t/hierarchical-sheets-and-pcb/6053/6 Read it as many times as it takes to understand only the steps you need to do. Basically, using PCBnew, you need to “Append” the boards together for your current build. You will need to update the pcb timestamps to match the newest eeschema timestamps before you append. If you need more guidance, please post your question on the other forum thread.
Good luck
