This allows you to take advantage of the full breadth of mechanical, design, simulation, data management, collaboration, and advanced manufacturing functionality in Fusion 360 in a single product development platform at one price. You’ll maintain access to your existing Autodesk EAGLE software and gain access to Fusion 360 at no additional charge. Issue: Starting January 7th, 2020, Autodesk EAGLE is now included with a Fusion 360 subscription. Adjusting the Size of Traces in Autodesk Eagle by Toglefritz Eagle CAD, Electronics One element of good PCB design that is not often covered in much detail in tutorials is adjusting the width of traces in order to allow your PCB traces to safely carry differing amounts of current.This will create a new schematic in the project that was currently opened. You can give it a name, but I chose not to. I’ve found the newest version (9.4) is easier to use as a starter than some of the older versions. You will then need to choose a text size that is comfortable to read. Board houses give a figure of 8mil or sometimes 5mil. Olimex, for example, specify 10mil (0.254mm), other. Check with your board house what minimum silkscreen width they can.
Provide the project with a descriptive name. Create a new project by clicking ' File ' ' New ' ' Project '. To start creating your first printed circuit board in Autodesk Eagle, follow the below-listed steps to create a new project before everything else. If you need finer control, hold down ALT on your keyboard to access the alternate grid, which is defined in the Alt box. EAGLE forces your parts, traces, and other objects to 'snap' to the grid defined in the Size box. A 0.05' grid, and 0.005' alternate grid is a good size for this kind of board.
