Make a library of all the parts used in your board
Open the .brd file using Eagle, goto File->Run, and open “exp-project-lbr.ulp”, this will export the components used in the board as a Eagle library.
Great trick for when a library is not available directly.
Proteus ISIS is a nice and powerful simulation tool for electronic designs. For most ICs the supply pins are hidden and they are connected to the 5v power rail by default. Some times one need to use other than 5V value for the supply and i have seen many people don’t know how to do it. In this short post I would show how you can change the value but first if just want to connect the 5V supply to other devices.
In case you don’t want to change the supply voltage and just want to connect it to other devices its fairly simple. Follow the steps
This is how it would appear on the schematic.
Changing the Power Rails Volatge
So if you want to use other than 5V power supply you can configure it from the “Design>>Configure Power rails” menu entry. Proteus would give you a dialogue box if you followed this menu from where you can change the value for VCC/VDD and VEE . Just type in the required value and hit OK.
that would lead to the final step.
cheers!
Eagle supports basic differential routing. To make a pair of traces a differential pair, both signals should have the same name with _N and _P at the end. For example `MIC_N` and `MIC_P`. When you try to route this signal it will be seen as a differential pair and will be routed as one. This means that both the traces will be routed at the same time as shown in the image above. Wen one of the two traces is selected both will be routed at the same time. To route only one trace, click on the trace to route it and when both traces are selected press escape to only route the one you selected.
