开云体育Hi Glenn… ? Well… Its not necessarily my favorite, but Al started this by using “Diptrace”… so I bought a copy (the 1000 pin version).? It’s cheap for the low pin count but gets progressively more expensive with additional pins.? The new V012 RF board has more than 1100 pins so the version you would need to purchase is about $700 USD. ? ? Dr. William J. Schmidt - K9HZ J68HZ 8P6HK ZF2HZ PJ4/K9HZ VP5/K9HZ PJ2/K9HZ VP2EHZ ?

开云体育OK Bill, thanks for that. Just wondering really, but not about to spend that sort of money. (US$700 = ~AUD$950) Glenn vk3pe

开云体育Yeah.? Well, it’s a really good design program for small PCBs…. Eagle is better for large designs by far. ? ? Dr. William J. Schmidt - K9HZ J68HZ 8P6HK ZF2HZ PJ4/K9HZ VP5/K9HZ PJ2/K9HZ VP2EHZ ?

A very very long time ago I used Eagle, too, until "they" decided that student/hobbyist licenses for
a few 100 $ are no longer available. After continuing a while with the license I still had got, I felt that I should look for an alternative and switched to KiCad (see ), a free and also open source EDA. While it took some time to get used to it, I never regretted having switched to it - maybe have a look, at least it can import Eagle files, don't know if it also supports Diptrace ;-) 73 de Dominic HB9HEI |
开云体育Yes, I use Kicad too… but the original files were and still are in DipTrace.? ? Eagle has vacillated between FREE and EXPENSIVE the entire time it’s been available.? I believe it’s been discontinued now… ? ? Dr. William J. Schmidt - K9HZ J68HZ 8P6HK ZF2HZ PJ4/K9HZ VP5/K9HZ PJ2/K9HZ VP2EHZ ? Owner - Operator Big Signal Ranch – K9ZC Staunton, Illinois ?
