There is an integrated Design Rule Check (DRC) that will ensure that the board you design is following all rules and has no errors.
Shenzhen, China - January 19, 2021 - PCBONLINE, a custom advanced circuit
board manufacturer, has recently published an
AutoDesk
Eagle tutorial. The step-by-step guide demonstrates how to create a PCB using
the software. First, it explains the program control panel, the schematic window,
and the board window. Then the tutorial tells how to create a new project, add
parts, add connections between parts, name and label the nets, provide parts
with value, check the electrical rules, and route the board. If you're new to
PCB design or use AutoDesk Eagle, this comprehensive guide should be beneficial.
When you're done with PCB creation, you can have circuit boards made by PCBONLINE,
which checks your Gerber and BOM carefully and provides free tech support.
PCB Creation with AutoDesk Eagle
Step-by-Step Tutorial

Question: I'm trying to create a PCB using AutoDesk Eagle but I am new
to PCB designing. Is there any free guide to help?
Before we reveal the process of creating a printed circuit board with
AutoDesk Eagle we should first see how the software works. Eagle's UI
consists of several major interaction points including Library, Board,
Schematic, and Control Panel. The library allows you to manage and edit
parts, as far as the schematics where you draw the essential connections
for a certain PCB. The board is where you lay out all the electronic
components that are defined to be physically connected to the board. The
control panel we will review separately as it is one of the most important
features of the software.
Step 1: AutoDesk Eagle Control Panel The control panel
remains the most important aspect of Eagle's UI and it is the main window
in the software. Once closed, all related windows that it opened within
will close as well. The control panel contains various categories:
Design Rules (.dru) are an inbound feature for checking the rules of a
certain PCB design.
Libraries (.lbr) are used for the software to store individual parts
that you insert in your project.
User Language Programs (.ulp) are most commonly used for advanced
scripting to assist with more complex designs and it is pretty much
impossible without it.
CAM Jobs (.cam) is used to export to different formats.
Scripts (.scr) are essential groups of AutoDesk Eagle commands used for
the execution of a certain command.
Projects - (.pcb, .sch and etc) is where your printed circuit board
schematics or whatever you are doing is stored.
In order to create a new project for a printed circuit board, start off
by right-clicking on the "eagle" and select "New Project". Then you will
have to download...

About PCBONLINE
PCBONLINE E-ecosystem is an electronic manufacturing online purchase service
created by GLOBAL SUCCESS GROUP. We found that the future business trends will
focus on customization, and the traditional standardized PCB production line
has been unable to meet the R&D of high-end electronic products and "fully
meet" customer requirements and lose competitiveness. PCBONLINE provides differentiated
services to our customers by means of the parent company's long history in high-end
PCB manufacturing and Internet tools. We mainly serve high-end electronics manufacturing
(EMS), such as the National Defense Research Institute, aerospace, communications
and medical electronics We will continue to grow with the society and our customers
so as to adapt to the changing world and value, and always provide the best
PCB and EMS services.
