en: KiCad uses a "major.minor.point" release version format.  Major releases bring new features and other significant changes to the code.  Minor releases are relatively rare and typically bring bug fixes that are too complicated for a point release.  Point releases contain only bugfixes.  Users are encouraged to update to the latest point release for their current major.minor version promptly, as these releases will not break file compatibility.  Major releases almost always come with changes to file formats.  KiCad is in general always backwards compatible with files created by older versions, but not forwards compatible: Once files are edited and saved by a new major version, these files will not be openable by the previous major version.
zh_CN: KiCad 使用 "Major.minor.point" 发布版本格式。  主要版本为代码带来了新功能和其他重大更改。  次要版本相对较少，通常会带来对点版本来说过于复杂的错误修复。  点发布只包含错误修复。  建议用户立即更新到当前主要次要版本的最新单点版本，因为这些版本不会破坏文件兼容性。  主要版本几乎总是伴随着文件格式的更改。  通常，KiCad 总是向后兼容旧版本创建的文件，但不能向前兼容：一旦新的主要版本编辑并保存了文件，这些文件将无法由以前的主要版本打开。

en: Basic Terminology
zh_CN: 基本术语

note: type: Plain text
en: KiCad uses a number of terms that are fairly standard in the area of electronics design automation (EDA) software, and some that are more specific to KiCad.  This section lists some of the most common terms used throughout KiCad's documentation and user interface.  Other terms that are more specific to a certain part of the KiCad workflow are defined later in this manual.
zh_CN: KiCad 使用了一些在电子设计自动化（EDA）软件领域相当标准的术语，以及一些针对 KiCad 的特殊术语。  本节列出了 KiCad 文档和用户界面中最常用的一些术语。  其他针对 KiCad 工作流程的某一部分的术语将在本手册的后面进行定义。

note: type: Plain text
en: A **schematic** is a collection of one or more pages (sheets) of circuit schematic drawings.  Each KiCad schematic file represents a single sheet.
zh_CN: 一个 **原理图** 是由一页或多页（张）的电路原理图组成的集合。  每个 KiCad 原理图文件代表一个单页。

note: type: Plain text
en: A **hierarchical schematic** is a schematic consisting of multiple pages nested inside each other.  KiCad supports hierarchical schematics, but there must be a single **root sheet** at the top of the hierarchy.  Sheets within a hierarchy (other than the root sheet) may be used more than once, for example to create repeated copies of a subcircuit.
zh_CN: **层次原理图** 是由多个页面相互嵌套而成的原理图。  KiCad 支持层次原理图，但在层次结构的顶部必须有一个 **根原理图**。  层次结构中的工作表（除根原理图外）可以被多次使用，例如，创建一个子电路的重复副本。

note: type: Plain text
en: A **symbol** is a circuit element that can be placed on a schematic.  Symbols can represent physical electrical components, such as a resistor or microcontroller, or non-physical concepts such as a power or ground rail.  Symbols have **pins** which serve as the connection points that can be wired to each other in a schematic.  For physical components, each pin corresponds to a distinct physical connection on the component (for example, a resistor symbol will have two pins, one for each terminal of the resistor).  Symbols are stored in **symbol libraries** so they can be used in many schematics.
zh_CN: **符号** 是一个可以放在原理图上的电路元件。  符号可以代表物理电气元件，如电阻或微控制器，或非物理概念，如电源或地线。  符号有 **引脚**，作为连接点，可以在原理图中相互连接。  对于物理元件，每个引脚都对应于元件上的一个不同的物理连接（例如，一个电阻符号将有两个引脚，一个用于电阻的每个终端）。  符号被存储在 **符号库** 中，因此它们可以在许多原理图中使用。

note: type: Plain text
en: A **netlist** is a representation of a schematic that is used to convey information to another program.  There are many netlist formats used by various EDA programs, and KiCad has its own netlist format that is used internally to pass information back and forth between the schematic and PCB editors.  The netlist contains (among other things) all the information about which pins connect to each other, and what name should be given to each **net**, or set of connected pins.  Netlists can be written to a **netlist file**, but in modern versions of KiCad, this is not necessary as part of the normal workflow.
zh_CN: **网表** 是原理图的一种表示，用于向另一个程序传递信息。  各种 EDA 程序使用许多网表格式，KiCad 有自己的网表格式，内部用于在原理图和 PCB 编辑器之间来回传递信息。  网表包含（除其他外）所有关于哪些引脚相互连接的信息，以及应该给每个 **网络**，或一组连接的引脚起什么名字。  网表可以写入 **网表文件**，但在现代版本的 KiCad 中，作为正常工作流程的一部分，这并不是必须的。

note: type: Plain text
en: A **printed circuit board**, or PCB, is a design document that represents the physical implementation of a schematic (or technically, a netlist).  Each KiCad board file refers to a single PCB design.  There is no official support for creating arrays or panels of PCBs within KiCad, although some community-created add-ons provide this functionality.
zh_CN: **印刷电路板**，或称 PCB，是代表原理图 (或技术上的网表) 的物理实现的设计文件。  每个 KiCad 电路板文件指的是单个 PCB 设计。  官方不支持在 KiCad 中创建 PCB 的阵列或面板，尽管一些社区创建的附加组件提供了这一功能。

note: type: Plain text
en: A **footprint** is a circuit element that can be placed on a PCB.  Footprints often represent physical electrical components, but can also be used as a library of design elements (silkscreen logos, copper antennas and coils, etc.).  Footprints can have **pads** which represent copper areas that are electrically-connected.  The netlist will associate symbol pins with footprint pads.
zh_CN: **封装** 是可以放置在 PCB 上的电路元件。  封装通常代表物理电气元件，但也可以用作设计元素库 (丝印 LOGO、铜质天线和线圈等) 。  封装可以有 **焊盘**，表示电连接的铜区。  网表将把符号引脚与封装焊盘相关联。

note: type: Plain text
en: A **worksheet** is a drawing template, typically containing a title block and frame, that is used as the template for schematic sheets and PCB drawings.
zh_CN: **图框** 是一个绘图模板，通常包含一个标题块和框架，用作原理图和 PCB 绘图的模板。

note: type: Plain text
en: **Plotting** is the process of creating manufacturing outputs from a design.  These outputs may include machine-readable formats such as Gerber files or pick-and-place listings, as well as human-readable formats such as PDF drawings.
zh_CN: **绘制** 是从设计创建制造输出的过程。 这些输出可能包括机器可读的格式，如 Gerber 文件或拾取和放置列表，以及人类可读的格式，如 PDF 绘图。

note: type: Plain text
en: **Ngspice** is a mixed-signal circuit simulator, originally based on Berkeley SPICE, that is integrated into KiCad's schematic editor.  By using symbols with attached SPICE models, you can run circuit simulations on KiCad schematics and plot the results graphically.
zh_CN: Ngspice 是一个混合信号电路模拟器，最初基于 Berkeley SPICE，已集成到 KiCad 的原理图编辑器中。 通过将符号与附加的 SPICE 模型结合使用，您可以在 KiCad 原理图上运行电路仿真，并以图形方式绘制结果。

en: KiCad Components
zh_CN: KiCad 组件

note: type: Plain text
en: KiCad consists of a number of different software components, some of which are integrated together to facilitate the PCB design workflow, and some of which are standalone.  In early versions of KiCad, there was very little integration between the software components.  For example, the schematic editor (historically called Eeschema) and PCB editor (historically called PcbNew) were separate applications that had no direct link, and to create a PCB based on a schematic, users had to generate a netlist file in Eeschema and then read this netlist file in PcbNew.  In modern versions of KiCad, the schematic and PCB editor are integrated into the KiCad project manager, and using netlist files is no longer required.  Many tutorials still exist that refer to the old KiCad workflow of separate applications and netlist files, so be sure to check the version being used when looking at tutorials and other documentation.
zh_CN: KiCad 由许多不同的软件组件组成，其中一些集成在一起以促进 PCB 设计工作流程，另一些则是独立的。  在 KiCad 的早期版本中，各软件组件之间的集成度很低。  例如，原理图编辑器（历史上称为 Eeschema）和 PCB 编辑器（历史上称为 PcbNew）是独立的应用程序，没有直接的联系，为了根据原理图创建 PCB，用户必须在 Eeschema 中生成一个网表文件，然后在 PcbNew 中读取这个网表文件。  在现代版本的 KiCad 中，原理图和 PCB 编辑器被集成到 KiCad 工程管理器中，使用网表文件不再是必需的。  许多教程仍然存在参考旧的 KiCad 工作流程的独立应用程序和网表文件，所以在查看教程和其他文档时，一定要检查正在使用的版本。

Dragging from left to right will result in a selection of any items that are completely within the window.  Dragging from right to left will result in a selection of any items that touch the window. Pressing certain modifier keys while clicking or dragging will change the selection behavior.  These keys are platform-specific and are described in the Editing Options section of the Preferences dialog.
zh_CN: 对象可以通过点击它们或在它们周围拖动一个选择窗口来选择。从左到右拖动将导致选择完全在窗口内的任何项目。  从右向左拖动将导致选择任何接触到窗口的项目。在点击或拖动时按下某些快捷键将改变选择行为。  这些键是特定于平台的，在偏好设置对话框的编辑选项部分有描述。

note: type: Plain text
en: KiCad editors have the concept of a **tool** which can be thought of as a mode that the editor is in.  The default tool is the selection tool, which means that clicking will select objects under the mouse cursor.  There are also tools for placing new objects, inspecting existing objects, etc.  The active tool is highlighted in the toolbar, and the name of the active tool is shown in the bottom right of the editor in the status bar.  Pressing kbd:[Esc] always means "cancel" in KiCad: if a tool is in the middle of some action (for example, routing tracks), the first press of kbd:[Esc] will cancel that action.  The next press of kbd:[Esc] will exit the tool complely, returning to the default selection tool.  With the selection tool active, pressing kbd:[Esc] will clear the current selection, if one exists.
zh_CN: KiCad 编辑器有 **工具** 的概念，可以将其视为编辑器所处的一种模式。 默认工具是选择工具，这意味着单击将选择鼠标光标下的对象。 此外，还有用于放置新对象、检查现有对象等的工具。 活动工具会在工具栏中突出显示，活动工具的名称会显示在编辑器右下方的状态栏中。 在 KiCad 中，按下 kbd:[Esc] 总是表示 "取消"：如果工具正在执行某些操作（例如布线），第一次按下 kbd:[Esc] 将取消该操作。 下一次按下 kbd:[Esc] 将完全退出工具，返回默认的选择工具。 在选择工具处于激活状态时，如果存在当前选择，按下 kbd:[Esc] 将清除当前选择。
