Hi Can anyone suggest a nice software (shareware or freeware) to draw circuits? I don't need an analysis or nothing fancy. Just a simple app to draw a...
Steve, EAGLE The demo works and allows all feature to be used. Restrictions on the demo is single sheet schematic and small double sided board. They have a...
If you're looking for something pretty easy to use, check out Target3001. http://ibfriedrich.com/english/engl_vordownload.htm I tried several other programs,...
If desparate, you can use MSPaint -- which is found under "Accessories" -- Nuts'n'Volts carried a series of articles using MSPaint for schematics. You...
The Eagle software looks good. I gave it a quick try but cannot print a board design with out the silkscreen type image of the IC's etc.. Is it possible to...

Use the Layer control. Everything you see is printed, so switch OFF what you don't want printed. I use a button in the layer dialog "NONE" and then for Top...
... About the nicest free schematic package that I've seen is SwitcherCAD from Liner Technology <http://www.linear-tech.com/software/>. This is a full-blown...
Hi, I have some old PCB boards that were exposed but never eched. I need to find something to remove the old resist. I have tried Mineral Spirits, Lacquer...
Jack: I admit I have used ONLY one kind of that "spray-on, photo-sensitive resist", and it ALWAYS came off instantly with JUST lacquer thinner. BUT, I imagine...
If it is dry film resists then you need a strong alkaline like sodium hydroxide. Exposed the remaining resists and then soak in say 5% solution for few minutes...
I had some exposed board that had negative kpr type resist i think i used paint stripper to clean them it was stippeze i think the active part was methylene...

Hi friends, Iam new to pcb design guys, can anybody help me out as how to create a pcb a have the pcb circuit layout i hav to do this neatly.do any one have...
Try this http://www.netcomuk.co.uk/~wwl/pcbs.html It's NOT the absolute only way to do this, but it has several good idea's. Visit the download page of this...
Hi all. I downloaded the deskpcb software and it seems to do a good job. I was wondering if anyone else has given it a spin. If you have, here are a few...
Hi List, I started my foray into making my own circuit boards by ordering ferric chloride and tinning compound from those nice people at Mega. While I was...
I went along to my local pet shop (in Stroud, UK) and bought a bubbler which looks as though it is made of sintered silicon carbide. It is about 4" long by...
You can use a piece of plastic transparent tube, similar to those used for perfusions or for aquariums. Introduce it in the FeCl cuve and pierce (using a hot...
Adam -- I think that 5% NaOH is overdoing it -- not that Sodium Hydroxide is expensive -- but I think that 3% is fine. 5% will blow the photoresist right off...
I am not sure about the errors, but it may be that you have a tool bit size in the program that it too large for the traces. for instance, if your bit size is...
Hello all, I am wanting to build a seeking device (camera), or thermal heat detector. No need for LCD, a blinking LED would be fine. I want to use it to track...
... Just need a lens that focuses onto an IR photodiode. The lens needs to be transparent and a low noise preamp connects to the photodiode. AC couple the DC...
Russell, Many thanks for your follow up! I am not sure what some of that is. I will start researching it right away though. You made it sound like a pretty...
