[Kicad-developers] Tweaks to curves for high voltage PCBs

Hi, a friend of mine who is one of the engineers working on the HAWC Gamma-ray Observatory ( http://www.hawc-observatory.org ) is designing a fairly high voltage (~5kV) circuit board to drive photomultiplier tubes that will be in an addition of over 1000 addit

Starting to get TL;DR near the end, but did you consider Jean-Pierre's proposal he posed around the 12th of February 2016? See [Kicad-developers] Custom shaped pads work. First test. 2016-03-31 0:29 GMT+02:00 Collin Anderson : > Hi, a friend of mine who is one of the engineers working on the HAWC
