GENERAL COMMENTS ABOUT EAGLE COMPONENT LIBRARIES
|
||
|
|
================================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The component libraries supplied with EAGLE have been compiled with
|
||
|
|
great care as an additional service to you, our customer. However,
|
||
|
|
the large number of available components and suppliers of these
|
||
|
|
components means that the occasional discrepancy is unavoidable.
|
||
|
|
Please note, therefore, that CadSoft takes no responsibility for the
|
||
|
|
complete accuracy of information included in library files.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Please note that libraries are not necessarily identical to former
|
||
|
|
libraries with the same name. Therefore, it is advisable to back up
|
||
|
|
your old libraries before installing the new ones.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Additional new libraries, that have not yet been officially released,
|
||
|
|
can be found on CadSoft's internet site in the download section
|
||
|
|
(www.cadsoftusa.com).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Please note, that libraries can be edited very conveniently with the
|
||
|
|
commands EXPORT and SCRIPT.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
All packages are defined in such a way, that tNames contains the
|
||
|
|
names of the components and tPlace contains the additional pc board
|
||
|
|
print. For the documentation print, tDocu is selected additionally.
|
||
|
|
This layer contains graphical objects which must not be printed onto
|
||
|
|
the board.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If components are placed on the bottom side of the board, the related
|
||
|
|
information changes from t.. to b.. layers (e.g. from tNames to
|
||
|
|
bNames).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Further usage of layers:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Holes: mounting holes
|
||
|
|
t/bFinish: finish, e.g. AT-Slot
|
||
|
|
t/bStop: areas without solder stop mask, e.g. for bridging connections
|
||
|
|
t/bRestrict: area without tracks, e.g. around mounting holes
|
||
|
|
t/bKeepout: area without components, e.g. EURO-19"
