Use the ".cam" file in the archive as the 'job' file to generate the Eagle gerbers. If you are using the Eagle software, download this eagle_gerber.zip archive that shows the gerber files you need (top copper, bottom copper, top soldermask, bottom soldermask, top silkscreen). Use to check your PCB for manufacturing problems. Print out the top copper on a piece of paper, and ensure the components all match their footprints in terms of sizeįor each unique footprint, ensure the pad number of the footprint matches the component pin number on the datasheetįor each connector on the PCB, ensure that its placement and orientation is correct If you tell Eagle to 'ignore' the errors, then you need to be sure that the error can actually be ignored (check with the instructor or TA). Once the board is autorouted, use the "Tool>DRC" check that your board has no design rule errors. You get in one room, display the PCB layout, and do the following You get in one room, display the schematic, and do the following (do this before checking the PCB):įor each wire, have a team member explain the wire function.įor each unique component type, bring up the datasheet of the component and check the pin number against the pin function and ensure they match.įor each component, drag the component around a bit and ensure that all wires 'rubberband' with the component, ensuring that the component is connected.

To get your PCB fabricated, you must do the following:
