Hi all (but mainly those who are interested in developing 8-bit hardware),
once again I had the pleasure of spending my free time sitting around in a hotel, but as usual, I spent the time being as productive as possible (without access to a soldering iron).
As many hobby electronics fans who use Eagle for their schematics will know, the component library lacks many of the special components used in our designs. Because of this, I have been creating my own parts over time and spent the last few days locating and dragging them into a single library for others to use.
The attached file can be used with Eagle 5.x / 6.x and includes parts such as:
Sound / Speech: SPO256, MEA8000, AY-3-8910, AY-3-8912 (24 + 28pin), SID
CPC Specific: CRTC6845, ACID, 50way edge Socket, Cartridge PCB edge
Floppy Controllers / Data Seperators: UPD765, FDC9216, FDC9266, SED9420
Memory: MMN4164
All parts include schematic symbols and footprints including stoplack, silkscreen, names, values, etc. The pins have also been correctly defined to allow proper ERC and DRC confirmation checks.
I have many more parts (I just need to find them) so I'll update the Library as I find more. If anybody needs any particular parts for a project, then let me know and I'll add those too.
Bryce.
