Choosing PCB CAD software
Also known as EDA (Electronic Design Automation) and ECAD (Electronic Computer Aided Design) software. Everyone likes free but Eagle CAD isn’t really free however there’s a freeware license where restrictions include it being limited to designing small(ish) 2 layer boards for non-commercial purposes. The other package that caught my eye was KiCad which is completely open source and unrestricted. There’s a decent comparison matrix of EDA software here. I settled on Eagle for this project but I’m sure I’ll give KiCad a try in future. Things I did find nice about Eagle were:
A large user community which means lots of support for part libraries and scripts
Lots of tutorials available
It was reasonably easy to get started with for me with no prior Eagle experience and limited electronics knowledge
