Search the Adom Wiki for the molecule "AD3-Molecule" (slug: ad3-molecule-840000) at https://wiki-ufypy5dpx93o.adom.cloud/wiki/molecules/ad3-molecule-840000. Download its symbol (.kicad_sym), footprint (.kicad_mod), and 3D model (.glb/.step) assets into my current KiCad project under symbols/, footprints/, and 3dmodels/ directories. Register them in the project library tables. Show me the files once installed.

The Analog Discovery 3 (AD3) features a powerful 2-channel, 14-bit USB oscilloscope controlled by the free WaveForms software. It offers a sample rate of up to 125 MS/s per channel and a standard bandwidth of 9 MHz.

NSF Relevance

The Analog Discovery 3 democratizes the tools of experimentation. By packing the core functions of an expensive electronics lab—like an oscilloscope, waveform generator, logic analyzer, and power supply—into a single, low-cost, and portable unit, it shatters the barrier to entry for high-level research. This accessibility allows scientists, engineers, and even students to rapidly prototype and validate new sensors, custom data acquisition systems, and control electronics not just on a lab bench, but also in the field. This accelerates the iterative process of discovery, enabling faster development of novel instrumentation for physics, environmental monitoring, biomedical engineering, and robotics, ultimately allowing more people in more places to test complex ideas and gather real-world data.

Integration Guide

To use AD3-Molecule in your design:

  1. Download the schematic symbol and PCB footprint from the Files section
  2. Import into your EDA tool (KiCad or Fusion 360 / EAGLE)
  3. Place the molecule in your schematic and connect the interface pins
  4. Use the 3D model (.glb) for mechanical fit verification

Design Notes

Board design files (.brd, .sch, .f3d) are available for modification and reference.
