Woo! Got my clock module down to two chips total (plus resistors, capacitors, and such).
Really basic stuff, but I'm still learning #KiCad.

Just realized the the current design won't honour the halt signal when it's in manual pulse mode... 🙁

Aha! A hacky solution, but I can fix it by wiring the switch that sends the manual clock pulse to
~HLT instead of +5V. No additional logic gates required.screwlisp likes this.

in reply to Jonathan Lamothe • • •Something that really helps me is Library Loader and the Samacsys tool.
It uses the componentsearchengine and can automatically set the parts up in KiCAD.
Hope you have a nice Friday.

kicad librarian here:
We don't chose. Its what users contribute. Only rarely do we actively add parts ourselves.
The logic libs are know to be broken for us since ages. They need extensive rework. For v7 we at least got the hiddrn-power pins for those symbols fixed.
We are planning to make the logic libs generated. Completely redone. That would allow to make split-gates and "block" symbols based on the same data.
Help is welcome

no.
Breakage can only occur if you explicitly update your schematic.
Most likely we will also choose a different library name to prevent confusion.
