Lesson 1 in my EagleCAD tutorial series. In this lesson we learn a little bit about the home window, how to create a new project and open a new schematic.

Lesson 2 in my EagleCAD tutorial series. In this lesson we learn about some commonly used tools in the schematic editor and how to do some simple manipulation of parts like naming and setting values.

Lesson 3 in my EagleCAD tutorial series. In this lesson we will start a schematic for a real working circuit. In this case, a voltage regulator, filter caps and an LED. We will cover some new tools, point out some quirks of Eagle and pitfalls to avoid.

Lesson 4 in my EagleCAD tutorial series. In this lesson we will finnish our basic schematic and make a few housekeeping changes. We will cover some new tools, point out some new tips and prepare for some new features to be added on in Lesson 5.

Lesson 5 in my EagleCAD tutorial series. In this lesson we will finish our schematic by adding a couple of parts and prepare for starting on the board itself.

In this lesson, we learn about manipulating the individual board views in EagleCAD. We also talk about a few trick built into EagleCAD.

Lesson 7 in my Eagle tutorial. In this lesson, we continue on with creating a board design with the schematic we created in the last several lessons. We will cover a couple of new topics like the Show tool and changing grid increments to move parts.

Lesson 8 in my Eagle tutorial. In this lesson, we continue on with creating a board design and start some manual routing. We also learn about the Ratsnest tool for calculating shortest runs.

Lesson 9 in my Eagle tutorial. In this lesson, we continue on with running traces, but this time we use the autorouter to do the rest of the job for us. We will also do a copper pour aka groundplane and go through the simple settings to make that happen. I realize I ran long on this one. I wanted to make it short and it ended up being the longest video in the series. In the next lesson, I will explain the Ratsnest fill a little better.

In this video, we show our soon coming TinyTrak4 Controller device. We demo the basic functions and explain what it could be made to do with firmware enhancements.

Lesson 10 in my Eagle tutorial. In this lesson, we learn about how to make the "disappearing copper pour" come back and also learn about running a silkscreen script. Here is a link to the files mentioned: www.rpc-electronics.com

This is a quick demo of a new product we're working on called the SoftRock Duo Motherboard. You can plug up to two different (bands) SoftRock Lite(II) SDR receivers into this board and have a full RF, Audio and Power interface. The front panel buttons choose which module(band) you wish to use. A simple PIC18F1220 does all of the switching control based on the button input from the user.

Lesson 11 in my Eagle tutorial. In this lesson, we add on a non-scripted silkscreen text marking and run the Gerber generation script. Here is a link to the files mentioned: www.rpc-electronics.com

This is a first demo of my new PIC-based DCC train control system. So far I only have code written for the functions shown in the video clip. I will be integrating loco addressing with rotary switches and use an ADC for throttle control.

I have been working on giving my CNC XY table full manual control via a PIC and handmade control box. In this video I am doing a quick demo of moving the table in all four directions.

Part 2 of my PIC based DCC system. This video shows a demo of the HEX encoder switch for throttle control, a forwards/back switch and much neater prototype on a single breadboard.
