# adafruit/Adafruit-Eagle-Library

Slowly building up a collection of parts we use here ... This file includes some library parts from microbuilder.eu Most of 'em are either Eagle parts that I've changed a little to make them easier to solder, some are 'handmade' and a few are from microbuilder.eu  Its released into the Public Domain - that means you can do whatever you want. We'd like it if you kept the author email/url in the part description, just so we can be alerted if there are errors.  Enjoy!

## What it is
A collection of Adafruit's Eagle CAD footprint and symbol libraries (.lbr) for electronic components, including modified and hand-made parts released into the public domain. It is used with Autodesk/Eagle PCB design software in Eagle 6 format.

## Use cases
- find Eagle footprints for Adafruit breakout boards
- download component symbols for PCB design in Eagle
- add Adafruit parts to my Eagle library directory
- solder-friendly footprints for hobby electronics projects
- public domain Eagle parts for open hardware designs

## When to choose
- you design PCBs in Eagle and use Adafruit components
- you need ready-made, hand-checked footprints for common parts
- you want permissively licensed (public domain) CAD libraries

## When to avoid
- you use KiCad, Altium, or other non-Eagle EDA tools without conversion
- you need guaranteed up-to-date or officially supported libraries
- you require formal licensing terms or warranty

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: maintenance
- function: developer-tools
- domain: hardware, embedded-systems, developer-tools
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: eagle, pcb-design, eda, component-library, electronics, cad
