Both a thru-hole and a surface mount connector are provided, along with a different PCB edge for each. Just keep the PCB edge and connector type that you're using for your design and delete the others.</p> <p>The component footprints used in this template are <a href="https://github.com/devbisme/RPi_Hat.pretty">here</a>.</p> <p>The board outline looks like this:</p> <p><img src="brd.png" style="width:100%"></p> <h2 id="using-the-template">Using the Template</h2> <p>To use the Raspberry Pi Hat template with the through-hole connector, do the following:</p> <ol style="list-style-type: decimal"> <li>Open the schematic. Remove the SMD connector, J1.</li> <li>Generate the schematic netlist.</li> <li>Generate the .cmp file. (The J2 connector will be the only component in it.)</li> <li>Open the PCB. Hover your mouse over the connector and hit <strong>e</strong> to edit it. Select the J1 SMD connector. In the <strong>Move and Place</strong> section of the <strong>Footprint Properties</strong> window, select the <strong>Free</strong> radio button. Then click <strong>OK</strong>. The SMD connector should now be unlocked so it can be removed.</li> <li>Read in the netlist from the schematic. In the <strong>Extra Footprints</strong> section of the <strong>Netlist</strong> dialog window, select the <strong>Delete</strong> radio button. Then click <strong>Read Current Netlist</strong>. The J1 SMD connector should disappear. Then click <strong>Close</strong>.</li> <li>Finally, delete the upper two arcs and the edge of the board outline.</li> </ol> <p>To use the Raspberry Pi Hat template with the SMD connector, do the following:</p> <ol style="list-style-type: decimal"> <li>Open the schematic.
