## What it is
SparkFun's public collection of Eagle CAD PCB footprints and part libraries for Eagle 6.0+, organized into categorized libraries covering connectors, ICs, displays, and more. It provides the default footprints SparkFun uses for its own boards, though some footprints are unverified.

## Use cases
- find eagle footprint for a usb connector
- pcb footprint library for atmega microcontroller
- sparkfun eagle parts for arduino breakout boards
- lilypad wearable sewtap footprints for eagle
- capacitor and resistor footprints for eagle pcb layout
- gps module footprint for eagle cad

## When to choose
- designing a PCB in Eagle CAD that uses SparkFun boards or parts
- you need tested footprints for common connectors, ICs, and modules
- matching SparkFun product layouts exactly

## When to avoid
- using KiCad or other non-Eagle EDA tools without conversion
- you need guaranteed-verified footprints for safety-critical designs
- you need schematic symbols rather than footprints

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