EAGLE is a scriptable electronic design automation (EDA) application with schematic capture, printed circuit board (PCB) layout, auto-router and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) features. EAGLE stands for Easily Applicable Graphical Layout Editor (German: Einfach Anzuwendender Grafischer Layout-Editor) and is developed by CadSoft Computer GmbH.
A distribution board (also known as panelboard, circuit breaker panel, breaker panel, electric panel, fuse box or DB box) is a component of an electricity supply system that divides an electrical power feed into subsidiary circuits while providing a protective fuse or circuit breaker for each circuit in a common enclosure.
The Proteus Design Suite is a Windows application for schematic capture, simulation, and PCB (Printed Circuit Board) layout design.It can be purchased in many configurations, depending on the size of designs being produced and the requirements for microcontroller simulation.
Screwfix Direct Limited, trading as Screwfix, is a retailer of trade tools, accessories and hardware products based in the United Kingdom. [6] Founded in 1979 as the Woodscrew Supply Company, the company was acquired in July 1999 by Kingfisher plc , which also owns B&Q , and is listed on the London Stock Exchange .
The ring starts at the consumer unit (also known as fuse box, distribution board, or breaker box), visits each socket in turn, and then returns to the consumer unit. The ring is fed from a fuse or circuit breaker in the consumer unit. Ring circuits are commonly used in British wiring with socket-outlets taking fused plugs to BS 1363. Because ...
After the circuit design is captured in a schematic, most EDA tools allow the design to be simulated. Schematic capture involves not only entering the circuits into the CAD system, but also generally calls for decisions that may seem more appropriate for later in the design, such as package choice. Although you may be able to change the package ...
The design of a printed circuit board comes after the creation of a schematic and generation of a netlist. The generated netlist is then read into a layout tool and associated with the footprints of the devices from a library. Placing and routing the devices can now start. [1] Placing and routing is generally done in two steps.
Initially PCB was not intended to be a professional layout system but as a tool for individuals to do small-scale development of hardware. [ 1 ] [ 3 ] The second release 1.2 introduced user menus. This made PCB easier to use and increased its popularity. [ 1 ]
