Intro to PCB Layout

Enrollment limited: first come, first served

Participants requested to attend all sessions (non-series)
There are free software packages for laying out printed circuit boards (PCBs), and this activity offers a quick introduction to one such package. We will walk you through some simple designs, and send those designs to a production house so you will get a set of small PCBs bearing your circuit layout. We presume you will be able to get to a PC on the web. If not we will help you work out alternative arrangements.
