First PCB... Need advice!

Hello,

I’ve just finished my first schematic/layout with Eagle. I have a limited understanding of layout… Would anybody be interested in reviewing my layout before I send it to the fab!?

Thanks!

Thanks for the quick reply!

Which Eagle files do you need? By the way, how do I add attachments to my post!?

Thanks!

schematic and board (both sides if 2 sided).

You can create images of both via file/export, save them to a photo sharing place and attach them via the Img button.

You could also save the sch and brd files on a sharing site and post URLs to them.

Hello,

Thanks for the reply.

I’ve posted all the eagle files here:

I’ve also added the libraries I have been using, which do not come bundled with Eagle.

I forgot to mention that this is a demo board using an ARM LPC2129. Again this is the first time I try to layout a board, to be manufactured by a fab. I’m willing to follow instructions on how to improve the layout of this board as I really want to learn.

Let me know if there is anything else you need to know to get started.

Thanks!

You may want to post some PNG images of the layout, not everyone uses Eagle!

I’ll save you the trouble of posting the PNGs. Here are the layer-by-layer images:
