Fred 453 Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Attached is my Eagle Library for the Stellaris LaunchPad. It's my first attempt at creating an Eagle library so any advice would be gratefully received, but go easy on me! It was created in Eagle 6.2 so may not be compatible with earlier versions. It's heavily based on Gordon's MSP430 booster pack library from 43oh - http://forum.43oh.co...gle-footprints/ I intend to use to for mounting the launchpad on a larger PCB using the female header on the bottom but it should be OK for booster packs too. I've not used it on a board yet so there's a reasonable chance I've made a mistake somewhere and not noticed yet. Please check thoroughly before using it.

Pny 0 Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 How is this supposed to be used? I tried it on a board there I will put the Launchpad on top of my custom PCB (which is larger than the Launchpad). But using the Launchpad component from this lib will result in DRC errors on all wires crossing the outline of the Launchpad component. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SugarAddict 227 Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 You really shouldn't put a dimension layer in a part. You could also include the jumper and header spots around the chip and usb. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fred 453 Posted December 26, 2012 Author Share Posted December 26, 2012 This was my first attempt at an Eagle part. The dimension is supposed to be so you can see the space it would take up on the larger board. I'll tweak it when I'm back from the holiday visiting. Or if anyone else wants to, go ahead.

SugarAddict 227 Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 The guy is kinda annoying, but he has a bunch of tutorial videos for Eagle that are worth watching. Here's the one relevant to this here... larsie and bluehash 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
devilesence 0 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 hello i used this. and i am getting this dimension error while routing although the board only has the header footprints on the layer itself and the border or the dimensions are floating above the wires on top layer.would it cut down the wire on the marked errors?how can i fix this errorfollowing are the images of the error.

Fred 453 Posted September 24, 2014 Author Share Posted September 24, 2014 As SugarAddict mentioned, the dimension layer shouldn't be there. It was my first attempt at an Eagle part. I think for now you can ignore the DRC error. I'll try to get round to fixing the part. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
