Smiley: I use Eagle mainly because there is a free version and I've already climbed most of the learning curve. * The schematic editor can only create one sheet.ĭescription: Very popular package amongst AVRfreaks. * Only two signal layers can be used (Top and Bottom). * The useable board area is limited to 100 x 80 mm (4 x 3.2 inches). The following limitations apply to the EAGLE Light Edition in general: OS: Packages for Windows, Linux and Mac (FreeBSD users: works well with the Linuxulator) Usefull links: You can find there a ExpressSch components library that I created for my own convenience, but feel free to use it (edit it, improve it, etc.)Īttached: exported schematic (converted to. You'll find a large online community with a library of components you can add at Ĭontributions by: tpappano, Plons, Marzipan. The schematic library is refreshingly easy to browse. I agree that it's very user friendly and intuative and that the getting started manual is awesome. Once you've made the schematic you have to again add each component to the board design, even though the two files are linked. Marzipan: A major downside is that the components aren't automatically connected to their footprint. Keyboard shortcuts: W for Wire, F for FullScreen. The learning-curve for this program is flat: you can start right away after installing the program. Plons: I use the ExpressSch program to do schematics and did not use their pcb-service. The charge is added to the same credit card you placed the board order on. The charge for the Gerbers (so far) has been $60.00 You simply request them via email using the board order number, and they email a. The cad files are a proprietary format, but ExpressPCB can supply you with Gerbers if you want them. Easy to use, and they turn out pretty nice boards as well. Tpappano: Expresspcb has a nice free schematic program along with their board layout program. For a fee they will provide the Gerber-files. Use your favorite program to turn that into a.
