Electronic Circuit Design

This week we learned how to design a PCB using Eagle software. I redrew the echo hello-world board. I modified the circuit design by adding an LED and a on/off button. In the process of making my board, I watched a far amount of Eagle tutorials and all were very helpful when it came time to design my board.

Board layout in eagle & trace calculation in fab modules

I exported my Eagle png into Illustrator to write my name and create the cutout offset

First board attempt. I didn’t make my cut offset large enough so I got into my board.

2nd attempt. My lines were a little too thin. So I corrected my line weights and cut a 3rd board, and it was a success, as seen on the far right.
