so I want to start getting pcbs made for me , so i can throw out all this telephone wire, but after reading on i found Express Schematic and express pcb, which i thought was great , so i could draw schematic and export to a pcb design, not the case, and it seems that the link button is much like the useless box, and if i read the mail properly from the providers it said i could not do it like that, but could not take the time to help orientate me.
So back to google, and next downloaded OrCad CIS v16.6, i could even tell during install , very powerful software, very cool, but I think i have problem with library s and footprints, and cant get schematic exported to pcb.
After that i tried Autodesk Electrical , which autocad vendor recommended, and good cos im trying out autodesk for 3D printer cads, but i think this software is more for electrical, as i found that there few options for electronics, specifically i couldn't find transistors.
I dont even really need spices, I just want to draw schematic, then have software convert to PCB, then maybe move a resistor or 2, then save as format that is common to most vendors, especially cheapees!
i dont mind using what i have, or getting something else, all i really need help with is a basic hello world schematic.. with battery, resitors, switch , caps, diode, inductor, transistors, just basics to get started...
..?
