Components[edit]
Hello, it will be great if you can add the LM072 Bluetooth module to the Eagle library
[edit]
Could you possibly eplain what to do with the .lbr file for someone who doesn't have a clue? There's absolutely no explanation on this site, or even an explanation of what this site is. I moved it to different folders for a while, but then that got boring, so I started uploading it to different servers, which eventually got old as well. So I made 700 copies in one folder until my hard drive crashed. I think maybe that was the correct thing to do.
OK, I'll explain what it is -- under one condition. You must, in return, explain something you know to some other newbie (which may or may not be me). This is a "library" file for the EDA software known as "Eagle". If there isn't enough information at Techniques#software_design_tools for you to download your own free demo copy of the Eagle software and use these ".lbr" files, please tell me. --DavidCary 15:14, 11 May 2007 (PDT)
Download links[edit]
None of the download links seem to work at present: "The requested URL /tutorial/SparkFunEagle-11-03-09.zip was not found on this server."
Export to other formats[edit]
Sorry to ask for it, but ... in any way you would export to other format like Protel, OrCAD, ... ??? Even if Eagle is great, I found nothing to use these parts in other tools. Am I wrong ?
Anyway, that's would be greatly appreciated, I think, not only from me.
There are some footprints in these formats on the PCB Footprints page. Hope that helps. --DavidCary 14:17, 6 August 2007 (PDT)
Are you using linux? Then put the .lbr files in /usr/share/eagle/lib. .lbr files contain devices, is as simple as that :)
I am attempting to use the Spark Fun library (under Ubuntu 9.04) with 4.16 Eagle. Eagle will not open the library saying that Eagle 4.60 or greater must be used. I think this is an error.
I'm having the same issue, anyone have an answer to this issue yet? 7/30/09 - Thanks!
Corrupt SparkFun Eagle Library zip file[edit]
I have tried to download the SparkFun Eagle Library zip file from 2 different computers (XP and Windows 7) and it says the compressed folder is invalid or corrupted. I also tried older versions of the library and the same thing happened. Thanks! I am really looking forward to creating a PCB for a Clodbuster rover I want to make.
