Quickboards is a modular electronic schematic and firmware library that allows engineers to assemble production-ready circuits using pre-tested building blocks. It eliminates the “blank page” stage of hardware design, helping teams go from concept to prototype up to 60% faster.

Instead of designing common circuits (like power regulators or sensor interfaces) from scratch, you browse our library, copy the sub-circuit schematic files into your ECAD tool, and connect them. Each block includes the necessary layout guidelines and firmware snippets.

Quickboards is built for professional hardware engineers, R&D labs, and startups who need to iterate quickly without compromising on reliability. It’s also an excellent resource for firmware engineers who need a “known-good” hardware reference to begin software development.

Yes! We prioritize our development roadmap based on user feedback. If you need a specific IC or interface that isn’t in our library yet, Enterprise members can submit a “Block Request,” and our engineering team will evaluate it for upcoming releases.

Yes. Each schematic block in the Quickboards library is based on industry-standard ICs and has been validated through real-world prototyping. Using our blocks reduces “first-spin” risk by ensuring the core sub-systems are electrically sound before you order your PCBs.

On average, engineering teams save 60–80% of their initial design time. A typical sub-circuit (like an PIC32 power and its peripherals/passives) that might take hours to research and capture can be dropped into your design in under a minute, and instantly start laying out the board.

Absolutely. Our blocks are designed with signal integrity and noise suppression in mind. Each block includes specific layout instructions—such as decoupling capacitor placement and ground pour strategies—to help your final board pass compliance testing.

We actively monitor the lifecycle of the components in our library. If a core IC in one of our blocks is flagged for obsolescence, we update the library with a modern, pin-compatible, or logically equivalent alternative to ensure your designs remain future-proof.

Our library covers a wide range of functions, including:

• Processors: Microchip’s PIC and ATSAM, currently developing ESP32, TI MSP, STM32 and Nordic series.
• Power Management: Buck/Boost converters, LDOs, and Battery Charging.
• Sensors: Environmental, Motion (IMUs), Optical, and Gas sensors.
• Interfaces: USB, CAN, RS485, and high-speed Memory (SPI Flash/RAM).
• Analog: Precision ADCs, DACs, and Op-Amp filters.

Yes! Most blocks come with “ready-to-paste” firmware snippets or drivers to ensure that once your hardware is built, the software integration is just as fast.

Yes! All blocks come with schematic files, board files, manufacturing files. Standalone licenses only receive the schematic files though.

Absolutely. Unlike a closed-source module, Quickboards gives you the raw schematic files. You can adapt, extend, or modify any block to fit your specific product requirements.

Yes. Our firmware is generally written in a modular, non-blocking C format, making it easy to port into bare-metal environments or RTOS frameworks like FreeRTOS or Zephyr.

Yes. Every block comes with a pre-populated BOM including manufacturer part numbers (MPNs). We prioritize components that are widely available through major distributors like Mouser, DigiKey, and Arrow.

Quickboards blocks are designed for seamless integration with professional tools like Altium Designer, KiCad, and Autodesk Eagle. We provide files in formats that support hierarchical design and sheet symbols.

Yes, library includes layout files for every schematic block, but this is only available for enterprise licenses.

Most blocks are provided as native schematic sheets. You can either open the file and copy the subcircuit into your schematic, or import the schematic subcircuit as a sheet into your existing project as a hierarchical block or circuit. All nets and labels are standardized for easy connection.

Yes. Our library follows IPC-7351 standards for footprints and industry-standard conventions for schematic symbols to ensure your designs look professional and are easy for CMs (Contract Manufacturers) to assemble.

• Hobbyists: Get full access for personal, non-commercial projects for a one-time fee of $299.
• Enterprise: Our commercial pricing is proportional to your team’s size and the scope of your applications. Because every engineering department has different requirements, we provide personalized quotes to ensure you get the best value for your workflow. Request a Quote to get an exact price.

No. To ensure your team has the flexibility to iterate and explore different architectures, we provide full library access via an annual subscription model.

The standalone license is meant to be used by one individual, the enterprise license offers your entire engineering team access including other offers not available in the hobbyist license. (pcb layouts, gerbers, firmware, commercial rights, indemnity, etc)

Enterprise licenses include professional indemnity, giving your company peace of mind that the designs provided in our library have been vetted for intellectual property integrity and technical soundness for commercial release.

No. The Hobbyist license is strictly for personal, educational, or “proof-of-concept” projects. If you intend to sell a product or use the blocks in a corporate environment, an Enterprise license is required to grant you the necessary commercial rights.
