New Year, New EAGLE. <\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n

A new year brings a new release, Autodesk EAGLE 9.3! We are back with a new and noteworthy release for 2019, allowing you to design faster, easier and better. We\u2019ve got some exciting updates for you enabling better collaboration, more efficient designing, and more control over your projects.  <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ultimate in PCB Collaboration <\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n

PCB design collaboration is now redefined in EAGLE with the new <\/span>Fusion Team<\/span><\/a> button. This new button solves your documentation needs, your publishing needs, global sharing and collaboration needs, redlining needs, and provides extended viewing like never before. We all know we interface with people outside of our organization or even computer, this new integration revolutionizes how we work together. Making the world of engineering smaller. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fusion Team supports viewing and annotating EAGLE design files, so even team members that don\u2019t use EAGLE can provide suggestions on the electronic design. It also integrates seamlessly with Fusion 360<\/a>, so your electronics designs, manufacturing designs, and mechanical designs can all live in one place. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What it does:<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Designed to make it easy for the engineer, project manager and entire team to easily share and review design data. Simple enough to use so that users with little to no experience with EAGLE can still join in adding markups and comments.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

How it works:<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Push your EAGLE design and manufacturing files to Fusion Team and then send invites to team members to start collaborating. Fusion Team allows you to easily control visible board layers, highlight components and will also version these releases so your design will be documented every step. When you push your EAGLE design to Fusion Team you\u2019ll automatically get a 3D view of your circuit board since <\/span>the same cloud backend connects EAGLE and Fusion 360<\/span>. Additionally, if you include the manufacturing files, you can form a release of the design in which the manufacturing data is completely in step with the design files. Fusion Team will version these releases so your design will be documented every step of the way since the notations are also versioned.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"push<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Try it yourself:<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Click the Fusion Team button and then select if you want to push just the design files, or the design files and manufacturing files, then click \u2018OK\u2019. The Fusion Team viewer fully understands EAGLE file format so you can easily control what layers are visible and make annotations for design reviews and recommendations. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s important to mention that this doesn\u2019t change how files are saved in EAGLE. Your local design data will not be changed or affected by pushing to Fusion Team. We are really excited about the workflows this integration will enable since it will allow teams to work more effectively together.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Filter Selection tool<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What it does: <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This new feature gives you more control over what\u2019s included in your group selections and avoids accidentally moving the attributes of components not in the group. <\/span>There are instances that moving a defined group will include attributes that are not intended to be moved. One solution is using the layers setting option and disabling the layer pertaining to those attributes. In this release, we\u2019ve provided an easier and more efficient way of solving this issue.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"filter<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

How it Work<\/span><\/i>s:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now we\u2019ve made a quicker way to filter attribute selections with the GROUP command. Activate the Group command, on the top parameters toolbar you\u2019ll see the Enable Attributes selection icon. Clicking it will allow the >NAME and >VALUE text to be included when forming a group, you\u2019ll see the selection crosshairs on the text when this option is active. Clicking the icon again will toggle the option and you\u2019ll see that the selection crosshairs disappear from the >NAME and >VALUE texts. This feature gives you more control over what\u2019s included in your groups and avoids accidentally moving the attributes of components not in the group.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Package Generator Improvements<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Creating parts was once a long, time-consuming process. We made it easier and faster with the built-in Package Generator in Autodesk EAGLE. This go-to tool easily allows users to make complex component footprints and 3D models that are IPC compliant. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Together with the 9.3 release, we have added new package calculators to the package generator as well as support for thermal pads on selected surface mount packages. The new supported package types are:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
