I just downloaded and copied the RJ-12.p file from the conn directory. I copied it to both the stanard and custom libraries but I don't see it on the list and...
anybody have any routing ideas for routing between two connectors? they are on opposite sides of a small board. it's driving me nuts considering the parameters...
... I had to do something like that. If the two connectors are on top of each other (virtually), then start at the inside pins to make the connections, and...

Hello all, I am a new Express PCB user. I have read a number of posts about not being able to print layouts for making your own boards. I am using the latest...
Dear Friend, In the previous versions it was like that and they received a lot of claims.Then they removed the grids. But Ithink it is limited by the size for...
I don't know what they did, but the versions starting from before 5.6 don't have any grid. Strangely, it's right after I made a guide on how to remove the dots...
I am new to the e-pcb, and I am loving it! I have to put a ceramic resonator in my pcb design. there is the correspondent symbol on the schematics, but not at...
... is there ... Alexandre, One of the things I like about ExperssPCB is the ease of creating your own components. If you haven't looked at it yet, go to the...
Thanks for your advice! I have worked on that. I used a TO-220 for the resonator, and it fits perfectly! Alexandre [Non-text portions of this message have been...
I'm working on a small design that can be duplicated twice on a single MiniBoard, that way I can get three boards and cut them into six smaller PCBs. What's...
I'd be careful in cutting the board if it has internal ground and power planes. It's fairly easy to cause shorts when you use a dirty method of cutting with...

... Nay, a bandsaw! It is often helpful to place a series of vias along the "cut line". On a double-sided board (as opposed to 4 layer) you may be able to just...
Years ago, I worked in an electronics factory and was in charge of making the single sided PCB's. The process is quite different today, but back then, we...
Harbor Freight sells a small table-top table saw for under $50. I use mine to split boards (the last one was 6-up on a mini-board order of double-sided ...
I have just cut a miniboard. I had been using Xact knife and Xact precise saw before, but this time I used Dremel and cutting wheel (No.409). It was much...

I am about to attempt to create a proto board with the $51 deal. I'm still wondering what is the rule of thumb of how much bigger to make the holes, knowing...
Okay, i see now that I asked this question before and it was answered. Basically simple arithmetic. For the hole size, take the stackup of the tolerances. Now...

Hey ya'll... is there any difference in the footprints of QFP vs TQFP? I've got some TQFP ICs I'd like to use... but the only component that's even close in...
