Teensy LC part for Fritzing

Hi all, im using a Teensy LC in a project and didn’t find a Fritzing part for it. Did anyone build one? The Teensy 3.x are quite uncomfortable to use because the pins don’t connect to the breadboard. I would create/edit myself but no experience …
Regards,
Lars

Hi there. I am totally new to this platform but really enjoying it so far. I’ve just built a simple LED timer circuit but I cant figure out how to simulate it. Is this possible? The circuit works from a push button.

Thanks for any help.

CAT24C32WI-GT3 Raspberry Pi Hat EEPROM part request

Could someone please make this part for me please? Turns out Raspbery Pi reccommends you use it on your hats so you can identify your board to the Pi.

I’ve made some parts in fritzing myself now, but not SMD ones, and the ones I did make mean I now need to get another PCB fabricated lol.

http://www.farnell.com/datasheets/2032708.pdf (The SOIC-8 version - as I can’t seem to find the through hole one to buy anywhere).

If you do make it, thank you very much!
James.

Installing fritzing 0.9.4. on openSUSE Leap 15.1

$

Hi,
I’m trying to install fritzing 0.9.4. on openSUSE Leap 15.1.

  1. OpenSUSE is only supporting the older version 0.9.3b. So I removed this version first.
  2. Installing “fritzing-0.9.4-lp151.225.1.x86_64.rpm” (provided by home:Heinervdm:branches:Education) with
    rpm -Uhv fritzing-0.9.4-lp151.225.1.x86_64.rpm --nodeps
    –nodeps because without it comes up with

error: Failed dependencies: fritzing-parts = 0.9.4 is needed by fritzing-0.9.4-lp151.225.1.x86_64

Unfortunately I could only find fritzing-parts version 0.9.3b, so I tried to install these. My hope was to regenerate the parts database later.

  1. fritzing starts with error:

Regenerating parts database Unable to find parts git repository

and with some errors on not finding parts (as I was expecting).

  1. When I start Part->Regenerate parts database I get the error

Database failure

  1. I’ve followed the hints here in the forum and have deleted:
    ~/Documents/Fritzing/parts
    ~/.config/Fritzing
    without success.

Is there anything, I can do? Has someone managed to get fritzing 0.9.4 running under openSUSE Leap 15.1?
Thank you very much for any hint or comment.

See bottom of breadboard view?

$
0
0

Hi All,

I’m trying to use Fritzing to help me design circuits on Perfboard. I’m very beginner not only to fritzing but this type of hobby (in my case). I’m trying to use Fritzing to help me visualize how I want wires to run and components to sit, in my case I will run wires behind the perfboard to keep things neat with the ESP32 I will be using but i cant figure out how to flip the perfboard/breadboard over so I can see the bottom to run the wires(i hope that makes sense). Is there a way to do this or perhaps I have a fundamental misunderstanding of the breadboard view?

Thank you
Jon

2 for 1 PCB Design - Best Practice

$

Hello all,

I wondered if there’s a best way to layout two PCBs in the PCB view so that when you send it off for Fabrication, say to Aisler for example, firstly is there a way to do that in Fritzing (I found slightly overlapping two boards means Aisler complains that there is no outline border), I was going to overlap them and then place some non-plated holes between them, but so far it looks like that won’t work, so I’d love to know the best and easiest way to this (i.e. I don’t want to design a special PCB which has both PCBs in it’s SVG design, but if that’s the only way then I’ll have to consider it).

Thanks, James.

4 Layer PCB Ability

Would it be possible to make it so you can have up to four copper layers in fritzing?

On the official Raspberry Pi Hat specs (49mm x 56mm) I’m finding it quite hard to fit in all the thick traces I need with only the two layers, so to be able to do four would really help.

Thanks, James.

Hi everyone, newbie here

I am from the Caribbean, Jamaica. W.I to be exact, I finally found where to go to learn how to produce creative designs, I am totally blank but a sponge and cant wait to start and reach to the level where I can in turn help others.

My first go at creating a part. I really just wanted to draw up a neat circuit diagram of my subject tracking camera pan/tilt project but I added the Breadboard and PCB info. The modules have funky metric (2mm) pad spacing. Apart from that, the modules are pretty easy to work with. Details here:-

Hey Everyone,

I am trying to design a PNP break out board for the 52 pin ecu connector. Fritzing doesnt have that connector so i am trying to import it into the software. I have the CAD drawing and dimensions from www.te.com for the connector, What application you use, trying to work my way around InkScape but just to size the circle pins is a pain

DRC rules aren't happy with my part

$

So I modified the new Raspberry Pi connector @vanepp made so that I can ensure the board, mounting holes, and GPIO header pins all perfectly align (there are very slim margins!).

What I did was took his great part, and then added a board, and mount holes, in the sub mm perfect places, great work around I thought! I delete the ‘board’ group when I add the SVG to the pi connector part, and I delete the silkscreen and copper layers when I add the PCB Board design to Fritzing, I then set both the board and the part in the PCB view of Fritzing to exactly 0.000 (though there’s also a minor issue there too - for some reason they never actually take 0.00 on the x axis, they are either -0.001 or 0.003, but never more than 0.003 off what I want.

pi board pcb_master_ink

My Main issue, however, is that when I do my DRC when I think it’s all done it complains that traces are going over the pads that @vanepp made, but they didn’t when I used his part without modifications so I’m quite confused by that. I did nest copper layers, so just one, inside copper1 and 0, but I’ve also tried it with the two layers that @vanepp originally made, and that too brings the same issue on DRC.

Here’s the problem according to DRC:

Here’s the project that the above screenshot is from: Door Pi.fzz (197.4 KB)

Here’s the post where @vanepp submitted his part to the forum: Raspberry Pi 40pin Header and this is the part I’m using: https://forum.fritzing.org/uploads/short-url/vjZD8e7vWQOK6oFjDyglJsGaKZc.fzpz

Sorry guys, I really thought I had got a real handle on Fritzing now but this has quite thrown me.

If you’re able to help, that would be epic!

Thanks, James.

Help!Can some one please offer constructive criticism on my project

I am very new to any form of PCB design. I have collated a number of ideas from the internet to use the ATtiny85 USB board as the basis for an accessory or function decoder for a dcc model railway. This has been well documented elsewhere:
https://rudysmodelrailway.wordpress.com/software/

In my case I am using the concept for controlling lighting inside a coach in 4mm scale. I have successfully built and run the design and now I want to have a board made so that I can just populate the board. The boards will be all the same basic shape but with variations in length and functionality so this one is the “simplest”.

The circuit is supplied by a 15v ac dcc voltage which has both a power and digital command component.
My circuit is effective a 5v dc supply in parallel with an optocoupler circuit; the circuit I used is shown in the link above.

My circuit consists of ac in at J2 J4 Bridge rectifier to a 5v volatge regulator at IC2 for a 5v supply for the lighting and the digispark. In parallel with the optocoupler circuit. The optocoupler circuit requires 5v derived from the 5v dc supply. The optocoupler circuit sends a logic signal to Pin 2 of the digispark and the lighting is controlled via pins 1,3,4 and 5. I have shown tracks to holes in the board so that on the other side of the board I can solder sections of 5v LED self adhesive strip which can be independently controlled at J6,J7,J8,J9 with J10, J11,J12,J13 as ground.

I have also left holes at J1 and J5 in order to add a capacitor to provide a"stay alive" function for the dc supply. Since the capacitor is massive compared to the other parts I intend to solder flying leads to J1 and J5 and hide the cap somewhere in the body of the coach. As it is the components fit into the roof curve without too much difficulty.

I have several questions:
Can anyone see anything glaringly wrong with the pcb?
I assume I need a double sided board to allow connections through the holes!
Is there a more efficient way of laying out the board.
Thanks in advance for any feedback.5v supply to digispark3.fzz (52.1 KB)

No search function for parts

Hi All

Hope you can help. I have the downloaded direct from Fritzling two days ago and have the version shown in the screen shot. The search function is missing for the parts bins. It is not in the area its meant to be nor is it anyway amongst the parts listed.

Ive done a search of the issue and read the posts on it. Some have been too technical for me to follow but I did allow the permissions for the program on Bitdefender. I have deleted and re downloaded 3 tines and no change. Im running it on W10 64bit

Has there been a simple repair for this issue anywhere?

Thanks for any help as not having the search function for parts makes this program unusable for me.
