From schematic to gerber files, you can do all with the open source tools in gEDA.</p> <p>The gEDA project is a full GPL’d suite of electronic design automation tools. The suite includes tools for schematic capture, attribute management, bill of materials (BOM) generation, netlist creation, analog and digital simulation, and printed circuit board (PCB) layout.</p> <p>This session will cover: - Drawing a block diagram - Creating parts and drawing a schematic - Netlist creation and import into the printed circuit board tool - Layout of the printed circuit board - Outputting gerber files - Design verification - How to have your printed circuit board built</p> <p>This session will be presented for the beginner and will assume no previous hardware experience. gEDA website: <a href="http://www.gpleda.org/">http://www.gpleda.org/</a></p> <p>7PM Tuesday, March 15th at Free Geek: 1731 SE 10TH AVE</p> </div> <h3>Links</h3> <ul> <li><a class="url u-url" href="http://www.pdxlinux.org">Website</a></li> </ul> </div>
