Lots of external Eagle Links


Magic key words for searching the links, in the Topic column.

  • Projects: project descriptions, enough to reproduce the project, not just nice pictures
  • EFiles: File(s) in eagle format
  • Tutorial: a tutorial or how to
  • Link: a link to more links
  • Parts: Part libarie(s)
  • Info: Useful information that does not rise to a tutorial, misc. tips.


So for example if you are looking for sample Eagle files search on EFiles.

There were several sites where there is quite a bit of information. These include cadsoft.com sparcfun.com instructables.org
