I want to make some shields for my arduino. I have edited the schematic - basically deleted all but the connectors which updates on the PCB layout. I want to now wire up a couple of simple IDC sockets on the shield, but every time I try and wire something it says I have to do it on the schematic first.
I'm really not interested in the schematic for this simple task so how do I un-link the schematic and the PCB?
I have a switch that I used on another project, but I cant remember where in the library that I found it, is there a way that I can find out from the board what the part is, or even copy it across to my new board? Everything I have tried so far has failed!
The 8-pin SOIC package can also be found in ref-packages and ref-packages-longpad. There are several slightly different SOIC8 packages. Be sure to measure the one you have and compare it to the Eagle package that you chose.
