- [Instructor] Now, if we wanted to start our new design just with the parts that come standard with EAGLE, we certainly could, but I've got a couple of complaints about particularly how the library system is structured. So if you see here in this folder, if I look at Managed Libraries, these are all parts, the definitions of which have been contributed by different organizations. So you can see down in here some familiar manufacturers like Atmel, for example, and the chips that they make. And so, while I'm pretty confident that those are correct, what's really hard to do is to search. And I'll show you more about that as we get into the schematic portion in particular. The search function is really problematic in EAGLE. And because of that, I'd like to go ahead and download some custom libraries before we even get started that are easier to search. So let's bring up this Autodesk website that shows us how to bring in a couple of new libraries that come from Sparkfun and Adafruit…
