PCB Making with EAGLE

Lets Start with PCB's. PCB is a Printed Circuit Board. There are Various ways to design a PCB. The conventional way to make a pcb was by using graph papers. But today, as the complexity of circuits has increased, Software is required to make the pcb layout. The software which am going to demonstrate today is EAGLE. Its a freeware and also sufficient for academic purposes. You can download the software from eagle's website.

Ok, Lets start with Eagle.
Lets first understand what are the steps in designing layout with EAGLE:

1. Make the Schematic.
2. Place the Components
3. Lay the Tracks
4. Finalize the PCB.

Complete demonstration of the PCB Designing is shown with the following screen shots.

I will be attaching the tutorial pdf in some time for you to download.Till then do follow the above Screen shots.

Introduction

Today, am going to begin writing posts for students who are interested in embedded systems. Embedded systems is a very wide branch and also needs very clear understanding of concepts. But in my blog, it will be more of hands on rather than theory and books stuff. I will provide books for whatever is required.

Mostly, the flow of our blog will be as follows:
1. PCB designing - As this is the most important of all things.
2. Embedded C - the basic language needed for uC programming
3. Making development boards. - The basic circuit requirments.
4 . Development based on various sensors and interfacing.

The blog will be mostly concentrated on AVR uC but frequently projects related to 8051 and ARM will also be posted.

Thank you.
