Made A New Part - Finally!

After wading through several documents (they all need updating), I finally understood the scheme of things and was Successful in creating a new part.

I made a couple of parts and show the first one in this post. I started simple: One Pin.

No DRC errors.
Dimensions are correct (1mm Hole, 5mm Pad).
Has Views of: PCB, Schematic (used existing schematic view for this part), ICON, BreadBoard.
Exported gerber and loaded into CopperCam

Scrnshots of the Views and CopperCam

In brief - things I learned beyond the obvious:

  • Doc’s refer to a “Tools Widget”: my Frtizing app 9.3b does not have the widget (mac Serria). Took awhile to locate the needed tools (not a widget but, Menu Items in Fritz Menubar>Window.
    -Organizing the (Inkscape) layers needed several attempts to avoid DRC errors.
    -Yes, can easily create Oblong/other-shape pads that have holes and work!
    -I did not follow the File naming convention for this test part.

Remaining Work to be done (and need some Tip’s/help): The ‘Advanced’ settings in the Inspector - where and how to tweak that?

Attached Part for your amusement…

Xbee pro + mini usb adapter

Hello Fritzing community,

As many of you know, I have been doing some new fritzing parts or reworked a bit few ones, some of them for my electronic project because I love how this tool let me design beautiful breadboard / schematic / pcb views for each project so far.

Now I was checking into the existing xbee parts and noticed there weren’t shield board like USB adapter from DFRobot or the same version for Arduino which you can see here.

As you already guessed, I did my own part based on the image sticking to the size of most things but noticed an issue about the female header connector:

Breadboard view

The problem: Female holes have 0.08" spacing instead of the 0.1" Fritzing grid. You can verify these values at Pag. #6 of Xbee manual.

Due to that, I must do a new Xbee (in my case, Xbee pro) Fritzing part to match this spacing and therefore making the usb adapter (shield) usable for xbee projects.

Using the Eagle board file of the Xbee pro, turned it into svg (thanks to Eagle2Fritzing algorythm), I effectively confirmed the spacing for this piece (0.08") as you can see in the next picture:

Xbee pro svg

As you can see, white lines are 0.08" grid and almost all holes are aligned to this.

So the question right now is: Should I let it as it is to maintain the real aspect of Fritzing parts?

Part appearing on both Sides of PCB

I edited two parts as shown in the picture. But after editing they appear on both sides of the PCB while I want them on the bottom side. I think the problem is in the SVG file with the copper0 and copper1 layers.


Here is the sketch- PCB.fzz (80.2 KB)
I cannot upload the SVGs here because the forums will not let me. But if you need them I will mail them to you.

Thanks

I am new to Fritzing and have been using the STM32F103 Blue Pill module for several applications. I would think that others may be using the same.

I am looking for the part object to use in Fritzing.

GPON Fiber optic cabling simulation

I don’t know whether this is acutally possible.

I’d like to use Fritzing to simulate fiber optic cabling using PLC splitters.

to illustrate:
my laser light source has +3dB
1km single mode fiber has a loss of 1dB
a PLC splitter splits the light into multiple beams (1:2 / 1:4 / 1:8 / 1:16 — 1/128), each type has different loss. A 1:4 splitter for example has a loss of 7dB

I’d like to be able to see the current light strength at every point I click

[ OLS ] ----- (+3 dB) --------- [ 1km cable ] ----- (+2 dB) ------- [ PLC 1:4]
------ ( -5 dB) -------
------ ( -5 dB) -------
------ ( -5 dB) -------------- [ 1km cable ] ----- (-6 dB) ------- [ 1km cable ] ----- (-7 dB) -----
------ ( -5 dB) -------

Is Fritzing the right software to do such a simulation?

Thanks

INK (GLCD) Display Part (NOKIA-5110)

These are useful, low-cost, low-thickness INK display’s with a Backlight.

I made three Variants of the connections:
• Variant 1 - Top Row
• Variant 2 - Bottom Row
• Variant 3 - Both Top & Bottom Rows with internal connections. Pads will be placed on the PCB - if you don’t want the pads for an un-needed row, use a different variant. Variant3 helps routing traces as needed without needing jumpers if they needed to crossover a trace.

I made these for my own use thus, regarding Fritzing Part ”Standard’s”: some were followed, others were not (particularly Font Size, Font Color and Line-Width).

Images of Variants along with an example in use…

Much thanks to ‘vanepp Leader’ for insight on Part Making.

DRC Overlapping problems with QFN / SMT

@szapo wrote:

Hi!

I have a custom made part for the MPU9250 9-axis motion sensor. It is a 3mm 24-QFN package, so quite small.
Additionally I use a Decawave DWM1001, which is - kind of - SMT package.
See the datasheet: https://www.decawave.com/sites/default/files/dwm1001_datasheet.pdf
The MPU9250s pads are some 0.18mm, the DWM1001’s pads are 0.35mm apart.

Below are 2 images showing the details of the 2 elements (DWM1001 only right half):

For both MPU and DWM I get DRC overlapping errors for every pad that has a connected trace and their neighboring pads - Why? It doesn’t matter how thin I set the traces.

How to draw a dotted line in schematic?

Is there a way to draw a dotted line in schematic? I have a section of the schematic that I want to surround with a dotted line to indicate that the section is optional and does not have to be used. I realize this would have ramifications for the breadboard and PCB layout, of course.

Thanks

I see the parts menu, but there is nothing I can select, is is all greyed out. Can i create a part with my own lead spacing? I need to create an audio transformer that has 5mm between leads on each side, and 10mm between each side.

Op-Amp example with audio in going to Amp out

@traisjames wrote:

I am working on designing an op-amp audio amplifier with digital audio level control and using the project http://fritzing.org/projects/op-amp-audio-amplifier as my template. The template shows that the audio jack for audio in the left channel is connected to the output of that Op-amp, whose positive input comes from the high end of the Pot (using DS1809), and the right channel in goes to + of the other Op-Amp and it’s output going into the low end of the pot, and the wiper going to the speaker.

Why is the left plugged into an Op-Amp output and why connect anything to the high end of the pot?

I attached an organized version of the above link with the digital pot but before I add the bandpass filter.
