What is EAGLE?

- [Taylor] Electronic devices are all around us, from computers and smartphones to coffee makers and toys. The PCBs, or printed circuit boards, that drive these devices used to be the domain of electrical engineers and other highly skilled designers. However, now that manufacturing is accessible to a wider audience, it's realistic for just about anyone with a little knowledge of electrical theory to use programs like EAGLE to produce small batches of custom PCBs. Maybe you've got an idea for a little board that emails you when your basement floods, but you don't like any of the solutions you find online. With EAGLE you can whip up a schematic, upload it to a service provider, and have your design produced with the same level of polish you expect to find in a commercial product. My name is Taylor Hokanson. I'm an artist, educator, and DIY engineer based in Chicago. In my LinkedIn Learning course, I'm going to take you through the step-by-step process of designing custom PCBs in EAGLE. Great, let's begin.
