And there are already existing some parts in the library.
And in a search for that usually you would have to make some components yourself.
If you are not sure about the name, you can change this to As shown in figure 5.
Here I found another part in other libraries, so I’m going to type in it, the name of component.
Here opens a browser so the component I want to start with is that integrated circuit and that doesn’t exist in any of default libraries that are included by default.
So I’m going to use this for the first And to look through the library, I’m going to click here. By clicking at the place part or by using the keyboard shortcut P. I could use the place part dialogue which I can bring up either by clicking.
Here I have quite a few options, I can either use the libraries tab on the left where I can choose the library and look for the components.
And what we see her that we have a couple of resistors, couple of capacitors, a couple of headers and a chip and by making this I hope, I’ll be going through the most basic things which you need to know for making a simple schematic. It’s just there as a reference for me and to move around the schematic, you drag it with the right mouse button and to zoom in and out, we can drag with the middle mouse button. Now I’ve prepared for schematic and this is schematic that I’m going to work with. Then I’m going to choose add existing projectbecause I’ve got the schematic.
In this project, by right clicking I’ll add a new schematic.
I’m in the projects I’ll right-click and add a new PCB project. Today, I’ll start in this part by making a schematic and in the next part I’ll make a PCB layout for the same schematic.
