Software • EAGLE

The name EAGLE is an acronym, which stands for:
Easily Applicable Graphical Layout Editor
The EAGLE software is a user friendly, powerful and affordable solution for PCB design including Schematic Capture, Board Layout, and Autorouter which offers a powerful environment to create electrical layouts and schematics on Windows, Mac or Linux.
This for several times awarded software offers an entire synchronization between the layout editor and the schematic editor. Any changes to the layout or schematic will automatically taken over to the other editor without need for an additional user interaction.
With up to 999 sheets in one schematic and a maximum layout size of 64" × 64" you are able to realize circuits and layouts in nearly any arbitrarily kind. The resolution of one 10 thousandth millimetre and up to 16 signallayer permits the production of very complex boards.
In spite of the extensive possibilities EAGLE is easy to use and impresses with lighting fast response times. EAGLE contains unlimited undo/redo and validates the layouts and schematics automatically and generates error messages on the fly.
We are able to offer an EAGLE version that optimally fits your needs. You can choose between the Light, Standard and Professional Variation of EAGLE and the modules layout, Schematic and autorouter can be ordered individually or in combination.
