The document discusses the process of designing and fabricating a printed circuit board (PCB). It involves preparing the circuit artwork by creating schematic and board files using design software like Eagle. Key steps include selecting and adding parts to the schematic, wiring the parts, arranging components on the board, and using auto-routing to connect the parts on the board layout. Troubleshooting may be needed during the design and fabrication process.

- 3. Prepare your circuit artwork 1. We need a schematic diagram i. Design by ourselves ii. Readymade (Internet, datasheet etc) Eg. https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/ArduinoBoardUno 2. What should we have on the schematic? i. Circuit diagram. ii. Name of the part used. 3. Software to design PCB i. Eagle (http://www.cadsoftusa.com/) ii.

- 5. Create new project >File > New >Project A new project folder is made under the project. Set the name of the project folder by renaming. When the project is working, it isn't possible to change the name. In this case, select "Close Project" from the menu. When a project is closed, the green mark changes to the small gray mark. 1 Starting a New Project Prepare your circuit artwork
- 6. The file to draw a schematic must be made after creating a project. Select "New" from the menu which is displayed by right clicking the project and select "Schematic". By above operation, the window to draw a schematic is displayed newly. In this condition, an actual file isn't made yet. 1 Create Schematic File Prepare your circuit artwork
- 7. Select File menu and select "Save as...". The file is made with this operation. Write the name of the ‘schematic’. A file of .sch is saved by pushing the Save button. 1 Create Schematic File Prepare your circuit artwork
- 8. 1 Create Board File Prepare your circuit artwork In the project, another important file must be created…called the board to draw the mask pattern for the printed board. The board file can be created after drawing a schematic. When adding a part to the schematic, a part is added to the board, too. So, when drawing a schematic, it is necessary to keep a board file always open condition. Click "Board" icon in the schematic window When a board isn't made yet, board creating is confirmed by following dialog.
- 9. 1 Create Board File Prepare your circuit artwork Following board window is displayed. In this condition, an actual file isn't made yet. A board file is made by clicking "Save" icon in the board window. The file name is same as the schematic file. But, the extension is ".brd"
- 10. 1 Schematic and Board File Created Prepare your circuit artwork The existence of the schematic file and the board file can be confirmed by the project folder of the control panel. The working environment was ready with above operations.
- 11. 1 Selecting and Adding Parts Prepare your circuit artwork To make the mask pattern of the printed board, the schematic must be drawn. The part which is used with the schematic is chosen from the one which is registered on the library. Click the "ADD" button which is put on the left side in the schematic window. NOTE: this screen is displayed when the “use” status is active, marked by green bullet. Right click the Library folder and click Use All.
- 12. 1 Selecting and Adding Parts Prepare your circuit artwork When pushing the OK button, a part is displayed on the schematic. Push the left button of the mouse in the position. Click one more to get another same part. To stop the addition function of the part, push an ESC key and "Cancel" button in the schematic window
- 13. 1 Wiring Parts Prepare your circuit artwork After we put the component, then wiring can be done by the Wire function. Left click the lead wire of the part and double-click at the end point which of wiring. It isn't necessary to keep to push the mouse button during wiring work. To stop this feature, press STOP button. The drawn line can be erased using the Delete button.
- 14. 1 Exercise! Prepare your circuit artwork Draw this circuit now!.. A 5 volt voltage regulator circuit. After drawing a schematic, the mistake can be automatically detected by the ERC (Electrical Rule Check) button.

- 16. 1 Creating Board file Prepare your circuit artwork When the schematic drawing is ready, click Board button from schematic file. The yellow line among the parts is the line which shows a connection among the parts. But, these lines are not wiring for the printed board yet.
- 17. 1 Parts arrangement on the board Prepare your circuit artwork The parts of the board are arranged out of the printed board. After pushing the Move button, move the parts inside the frame. We can also put text inside. The yellow line shows a connection among the parts. The part should be arranged for the yellow line to be simpler.
- 18. 1 Autorouting on the board Prepare your circuit artwork Automatically wiring is done by the "Auto" button.
