This KiCad 7 plugin generates tangential teardrops, in the form of lightweight track arcs. Check the KiCad doc for the installation paths.
This plugin is made and tested for the Chrumm keyboard. It may not meet general purpose requirements.
- Generated arcs are added to the "ARC-TEARDROPS" group
- Only straight track segments are considered
- Arcs are omitted if the track is too short or the pad too small
- If the arc radius is too big, there will be a copper gap
- The calculations are based on the polygon approximation of the pads
- The accuracy of the polygon approximation is influenced by "Board Setup" -> "Constraints" -> "Max allowed deviation"
