PCB Layout Designing Softwares

Hello Guys, Today I am going to discuss here all about PCB Designing and software for this.

Open Source Softwares (Means Free for Use)

These are PCB Layout Softwares which I used and sharing my experience of using it in my project.

1- KiCad EDA

This is a Cross Platform and Open Source Electronics Design Automation Suite. I can be downloaded from the given link http://kicad-pcb.org/download/

It has Schematic Capture, PCB Layout and 3D Viewer

2- Eagle by Soft CAD

It is well known PCB layout editor but it cost you for full features.

There is good tutorial on sparkfun website on how to use eagle for PCB Layout designing.

3- Express PCB
