POT LUCK EVENT • Wednesday, November 14 th • 4 – 8 PM • Pavilion at Lake Claire

LAYERING • Complete PCB from Past Workshop • Add a layer of copper to your PCB • Add a layer of ground to your PCB

EXTERNAL LIBRARIES • You want to buy an IC or breakout board from a website • Sparkfun and Adafruit, for example • They both offer external libraries for easy transition to PCB • Ensure that it works and it is the correct size for the PCB • We use LTSpice to test it • We use Autodesk Eagle to see if it fits into the PCB • Download the library from the following link: • https: //github. com/sparkfun/Spark. Fun-Eagle-Libraries • https: //github. com/adafruit/Adafruit-Eagle-Library • Unzip it and move the folder to Documents>>eagle>>Libraries • Go to library manager in your designated project • Select “browse” and choose the library you want to use • Select “use” and to verify use the add command a look for the library
