Tutorial 3 for Eagle: CAM Output and DFM

Follow
Jeremy Blum

This is my third CadSoft Eagle tutorial, sponsored by element14 & cadsoft. In this tutorial, I'll show you how to prepare your finished circuit board design for manufacturing! This will involve performing DFM (Design for Manufacturability) checks, generating output Gerber files, and sending your output files to a board fabricator. If you haven't watched my first two eagle tutorials yet, I recommend that you watch them first:
Episode 1:    • Tutorial 1 for Eagle: Schematic Design  
Episode 2:    • Tutorial 2 for Eagle: Printed Circuit...  

*Note: this video has some audio clipping. I'm sorry about that.
