I want help in design of PCB board but in this board i want maximum area covered by the tracks even if the circuit is very small and a pcb area is big for that. Mean we have to use maximum area for tracks and very small area to eaching. Means automatically it covered maximum space on pcb.
Please anybody help me for this

Hi!
If I cathced the meaning of your text, you would like to use copper pour. Like the attached board.
http://www.amsat-dl.org/p5a/8_4hemt.jpg
So, consider that you are working with one sided PCB, at the top layer. Then, select the TOP layer, for drawing. Then draw menu -> poligon. Draw out the full PCB's outline. After that Edit menu -> name command, used at the new poligon. Name it to GND. Then click at RATSNEST button, itt will fill the entier area.
Have fun! This technic good for RF design!
Bye!

Dear dZ99,
I already do the same thing but it can covers remaining space on PCB and I want cover remaining space by the tracks means the tracks are cover remaining area on PCB automatically.
Please Help.................................. Thanx

OKay, you got that!
Now clear. I'm thinking... It isn't so trivial in eagle. But the time I came to good idea, I will share with you!
Bye!

Hello,
I would like to ask, if somebody knows, is it possible to make a library entry of a group of
components (schematics along with pcb).
It was possible to do with PCB library in tango, so You coud have previosly developed parts of a project that could be simply placed on a pcb like a part.. It simply means that You coud take a part of a board as a library entry, and use it as a part later on.
It would be nice to have a predefined parts of schematics and pcb that You use often, like previously developed an routed elements.
Simple cut/paste does not helped me with the PCB part (the routing is steel neaded).
Sincerely Yours
Nenad Sakan

I guess Eagle's Manual is sufficient for learning it.

| 21 Dec 2006 3:13 Large Pads in Eagle?? |
|
|
|
Does anyone know how to specify (or create the equivalent of) a pad diameter larger than the max limit (approx 0.516")?
I've tried several things to no avail. I get all the clearance errors in the DRC.
Thanks in advance

HELP!
I have a lot of SmartWork PCB file (ver 1.4r1, Wintek, USA).
I know this is an old program...
How do I import to EAGle these files?
SmartWork PCB > DXF or PCB > BMP, and dxf2scr or bmp2scr are working ( ) but I will "real import" !!
Thanks and best regards

Hello everyone!
How can we print the *.brd file without the devices being printed? I only want the pads and other components needed for pcb lay-out and for etching?
I tried printing it but the components were also included.
Help me!

1. Click on the display button on the left side toolbar.
2. On the new window that appears, click "None" button and then select layers that you want to include in your print. Generally layers 16 , 17, 18 and 20 are used for single sided PCB (bottom side) and 1, 17, 18 and 20 are used for top side of double sided PCB.
3. Click OK and print your layout.

Thanks CMOS!
You're always there to lend a hand to us newbies!
Another thing, how do we change the pads of the components when a default size is already in place?

Change the pad size in the corresponding library.
Back again in the board choose the menu item "Library / Update" and point to the changed library - that's it.
But this will change all components using that library ....

To change the pad in the entire library....use "change-pad-in-lbr.ulp" ULP.

This has probably been asked before, but ....
I believe there is a way of getting Eagle (I downloaded the latest free version) to produce a single-sided board.
Please give me some advice on how to do it.

Hello,
I'm designing different boards on which i'm always using the same layout for a particular RF part.
I'm wondering how I could integrate part of a layout (2cm square to fix the idea) in an eagle library? I know how to do that for SOIC, etc. components but don't know how to handle this for a symbol (just like in Cadence, ADS, etc...).
Anybody knows?

Hello, It's me again.
I wish to put signal in PCB over the via that is already exists. I won't create another via in the same place, but just use the one that has already been created. Please see the picture.

Take a look at the pictures:
1) Same situation like yours
2) Route the signal (yellow wire) from the other side, which is not shown in your picture, toward via
3) End in the via. A small unrouted signal between via and pad will remain
4) Click on "Ratsnest" and the unrouted signal disappears

Hello everyone!!
I would like to know how we can convert the *.brd file to other format like *.jpeg, *.jpg, *.bmp and others without altering its dimensions so we can print the file anywhere we would like. I don't have any laser printer at home that i can use for printing but internet cafe's, in our place, do have this printers but the problem is they don't have this kind of software nor they will allow for installation.

from board window click CAM icon, select PS in device, scale 1, click file button and browse where you want to save the file (remember putting .ps as the extention for the file), select necessary layers, then process job.
now you have to find a software to convert postscript files to pdf, i use acrobat distiller.
