Open-Source Software Specified Resolution (300 Dpi Is Adequate) Software Used • Graphic Image Manipulation Program Recreate or Modify (GIMP): an open-source graphics package ava il­ able for GNU/Linux, PCB Layouts with MacOS X, and Windows. If a PDF is the source of the layout, GIMP can import the PDF page at a Open-Source Software specified resolution (300 dpi is adequate). Other graphic file formats Follow this step-by-step process for a cost-efficient way can be opened with GIMP. It is available at to duplicate a physical or published printed circuit board. www.gimp.org. • pcb-rnd. allows an image to be displayed Dr. Erich S. Heinzle, VKSHSE under the PCB layout A frequently encountered challenge is the duplication of an existing printed circuit being designed. It is board (PCB) layout - one that was published or sold commercially but is no available as a standard longer available, or an existing design needing replacement or updating with new package in GNU/Linux components. As shown in Figure 1, this is easily done with free, open-source distributions such as Ubuntu and Debian, as software (see the sidebar, "Software Used;' for details on the required programs). well as being available as source code, which can be downloaded and com­ piled locally. pcb-rnd can save in other PCB layout formats such as gEDA PCB, Protel Autotrax, KiCad, and FidoCadJ. This tool also enjoys para­ metric footprint support, padstacks, slotted pads, polygonal copper fea ­ tures, and arbitrary text in subcircuits (i.e. footprints). The layout editor supports .png, .eps, and postscript export for home PCB fabricators, and Gerber output format for commer­ cial board manufacture. Of note, pcb-rnd can be made to run on MacOS X, and a dedicated internet relay chat (lRC) channel Figure 1 - The original board on the left, and the exists if help is needed duplicated/updated board on the right. with installation and use.

The preferred PCB layout software is the open­ 4source pcb-rnd. It is available as a standard package in GNU/Linux distributions like Ubuntu and Debian, and as source code that can be downloaded and compiled locally. In Ubuntu- or Debian-based distributions, the command for installing from a package is sudo apt-get install pcb-rnd. Launch pcb-mdwith the PCB image displayed in the background of the editor. Assuming the PCB layout image is saved as MYLAYOUT.PNG, this can be done in a terminal window with pcb-rnd -bg-lmage MYLAYOUT.PNG (see Figure 6). Figure 3 - Cropped layout image in GIMP.

  • Manufacturing Data (NC Drill, Gerber, IPC Netlist, ODB++)
    A Parallel Systems Technical Note Manufacturing data (output files). Introduction To create an output package suitable for PCB Manufacturers you can create the files individually so that you have Gerber, NC drill and an IPC netlist or you can create one zipped file (called an ODB++) file which contains all the information required to manufacture a bare printed circuit board. You can also generate an IPC2581 which is a new file format that generates all the data in a single xml file that can be sent to fabricators, assemblers, test houses. This technical note describes how to generate all output files using PCB Editor required for bare board manufacture, either as separate files (RS274X Gerber, NC Drill and an IPC netlist), as one output file (ODB++ format) or using the IPC2581 export. NC Legend To generate the relevant NC Drill files using PCB Editor you need to do the following. If required you can create a drill table which will display the drill size, qty, type as specified in the Padstack defaults. To generate the drill table, use Manufacture > Create Drill table (OrCAD) or Manufacture > NC > Drill Legend (Allegro). The following GUI (default shown) gives the user the opportunity to define how the drill table will be displayed. Template File - Indicates the template to use to create the drill legend. Click the browse button to locate existing templates. Output Unit - Outputs the drill legend data in units that differ from those in the design. Library - Lets you view template files that are available via the NCDPATH variable that you set in User Preferences > Paths > Config.

  • Photoplotter FP 3000
    Photoplotter FP 3000 Instruction manual Note: Any inquiries related to photoplotter hardware or software should be addressed to an authorized distributor. Photoplotter software is subject to copyright. All the information here enclosed is subject to change due to constant innovation of the product. Date of the last change in this document: September 20, 2001. 1. Brief description: Photoplotter FP-3000 is a small, raster, low cost plotter which draws image on film by means of laser diode light. Film itself is fixed to the outer surface of rotating drum by means of masking tape. The source of laser diode light moves step by step along the rotating drum. Photoplotter is controlled by software installed on PC attached via its parallel port (PC is not a part of the photoplotter supply). An external, universal power unit is used to supply needed power (1x 110-240V/28V-2A for L model, 2 x 110-240V/24V-2.5A for XL model). There are two models of the photoplotter available – standard (drum diameter around 120mm) and XL (drum diameter around 150mm). The photoplotter software allows to read input files, to set output resolution and type of image (reverse, mirror, etc.) drawn on the film. When working with Gerber files, it is possible to check and modify used apertures (D-codes) and make simple film panelization for Gerber data and associated drill data. Viewing of Gerber files and conversion of various types of aparture files is possible in freeware program ViewMate (made by Lavenir), which is attached to the photoplotter software for your convenience (otherwise it may be downloaded from Lavenir‘s web page: www.lavenir.com).

This initiative will let the customers to purchase their desired product through the CRAFTR payment system. The platform is targeted to freelancers and developers that want to get involved in a new form of global e- commerce – that is secure, smart and easy-to-use platform, and completely disrupting the way customers buy and sell digital goods. Vendors will offer their products made from their skills to customers that will be in search of the missing piece to proceed in a stuck point, or simply to learn about new skills. The marketplace will offer a wide range of assets like graphic design elements, sound design components or script files. The final product is targeted to be released in at least 5 months from the beginning of the process and we will find a way to encourage users to use our product through new interesting strategies. Within the web revolution, we want to contribute to its growth and this will take more foot in the near future. The blockchain is enabling us to bring old projects from Web 2.0 to the new world of 3.0 and restore their values. As long as the store is not released, interested parties will be able to participate in extra earnings through the Proof-Of-Stake.

    Jurnal Teknik Elektro Vol. 10 No. 1 P-ISSN 1411 - 0059 Januari - Juni 2018 E-ISSN 2549 - 1571 Analisis Karakteristik Elektrik Bentuk Geometri Jalur Printed Circuit Board Menggunakan Pendekatan Finite Element Putut Son Maria1 dan Elva Susianti2 1Jurusan Teknik Elektro, Fakultas Sains dan Teknologi, Universitas Islam Negeri Sultan Syarif Kasim Riau 2Jurusan Teknik Elektronika, Politeknik Caltex Riau [email protected], [email protected] Abstract— Some Electronics Computer Aided Design (ECAD) softwares have provided several track shapes to design a Printed Circuit Board (PCB), such as right angle, rounded and trapezoidal. However, it is quite difficult to find scientific literature that can be used as a guide which explains and compiles directly about each character of the geometry. This study aims to analyze and to observe the electrical characteristics of the geometry shape on the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) path by using the finite element method. Each PCB path shape is modeled according to its geometry and physical properties, then calculated for its electrical quantity and be observed for its performance at given current. Simulation and numerical calculations showed that the shape of trapezoidal and rounded geometry have lower resistance and planar inductance of 6.8% and 7.39% respectively than the right angle shape. Keywords— ECAD, PCB, geometric shape, Finite Element Analysis Abstrak— Beberapa perangkat lunak yang termasuk kategori Electronics Computer Aided Design (ECAD) telah menyediakan beberapa pilihan bentuk jalur Printed Circuit Board (PCB) seperti right angle, rounded dan trapezoidal. Tidak banyak ditemukan literatur ilmiah yang dapat dijadikan pedoman yang menjelaskan dan mengkomparasikan secara langsung tentang masing-masing karakter dari bentuk geometri tersebut.
