Easily Applicable Graphical Layout Editor (EAGLE)
 

Does anyone know if there is a Eagle Library with the FRC components parts available?
Thanks

Easily Applicable Graphical Layout Editor (EAGLE) is carried in the US by
CadSoft. There's a free version of it at http://www.cadsoftusa.com/. I just thought some First Team might have used it to make their schematics or custom PCB's.

Ha, I know I was just messing by adding a picture of the Coast Guard Cutter EAGLE. Thanks tho.

The FIRST boards (accelerometer, gyro, PD board, etc) aren't available in Eagle formats.

They only have the Altium Designer files (you can download Altium as part of the KOP) and I believe they have gerbers too.

What were you looking to do with them?

I was going to make a schematic of the layout for the team.:) Does everyone use Altium Designer? We are a rookie team and aren't familiar with Altium Designer. I'm game though. Thanks for the info.

Which layout?

If you're trying to layout the entire electronics system, Eagle (or Altium) isn't the right tool for the job. Eagle is used to do schematic capture and design PCBs, such as the gyro breakout board. It won't work to do large-scale layout.

For this, we generally use the same CAD as we use for the rest of the robot (Inventor, for us).
