When you download that library from Sparkfun or Adafruit, what happens if they release an update to one of the parts down the road? You never find out about it. Whether that’s from Adafruit, Sparkfun, or SeeedStudio, the chances are that if you need a basic part, then it’s already been made for you by someone, somewhere.īut even this benefit brings up a whole new set of issues. The good news is that these days there are a ton of freely available libraries that are made specifically for EAGLE. Where are you going to keep track of all that data, and who in the world has time for all of this?Īre we making anything better by reinventing the wheel as engineers? ( Image source) And what will you do when part numbers get updated, and you don’t know about it. Here’s the problem with this impulse to reinventing the wheel, it takes a ton of time and effort that could be better spent elsewhere.

And other engineers are simply in that endless cycle of reinventing the wheel out of sheer habit, so they just keep making the same parts again, and again, and again.

Some engineers don’t trust the parts that were made by other engineers at their company, so they just make them again.

Some engineers don’t have a good organizational system to find existing parts, so they just make them again.

I’ve talked to more engineers than I can count who just end up making the same parts over and over again. And not only that, it’s not like we’re making different parts for each new design. The real problem with library management is this – we end up spending more time maintaining our parts and data than do we on our actual design process. Ready to ditch the spreadsheets, minimize the folders, and get back to what really matters? Let’s see what Managed Online Libraries are, why we made them, and how you can start using them today!

And that’s all manual work.ĭo any of us enjoy all of this busy work associated with library management and creation? This is why we’ve built a brand new Managed Online Libraries feature in Autodesk EAGLE to make this whole process more efficient and enjoyable. And then we have to hope that the manufacturer part number we’ve chosen are still available for production in our next design. That’s generally done in an endless array of folders. And then we need to find a way to keep everything organized. Then we need to find a way to keep track of changes we make to our components. But that’s just the beginning of the madness. Rather than designing something creative, we end up spending hours creating packages, symbols, and devices. Let’s be honest, creating and managing your libraries can be such a headache, and it’s often the last thing we want to be doing as engineers.
