I did drop a question there, already, but then the forum struck me like being quiet and I thought I'll try it here, too, and indeed, I got all this useful feedback.įor a free schematics tool with simulation ability, I recommend LTSpice. The only drawback is that I cannot find the parts I need.į has a forum, that's the place to ask once you've checked out The Fritzing Parts Library It also uses the Arduino UNO from the Arduino library. The schemes are very illustrative and easy to read by students (exactly like MarkT noted). engineeringonline fritzing tutorialThis tutorial explains how to add/import a new component in Fritzing if it not available in the library.
Fritzing is very easy to use: parts are on the right and you just drag and drop them and connect them on the spot. I just need to draw a couple of schemes and be done with them. I did try Eagle (I still have it installed) but its use didn't appear very straight forward to me and I don't want to invest much time in learning such an application. I have not seen a good schematic created in fritzing.
Fritzing doesn't seem much better than a toy. Try Eagle or other free PCB/schematic software.Įagle gets my vote.
