I hear there are free and low cost versions of Eagle with various limitations. I think all of them can do at least one page of schematic capture. However Eagle, like any complicated software package, takes a little while to learn and won't help you immediately. You could sketch the schematic with pencil and paper, scan it, and attach the GIF file or put it on a web site if it's too big. That sounds a lot easier than trying to use Paint to draw a schematic. > And I will copy the link to maxim's site > again below for reference (since I didn't stick the regulator circuit in > there). I don't know about others, but I'm not going to go chasing several links just to answer a PIClist question. You will get a better response if you put everything we need to know in one place that is easy to get to. Remember, you are asking people to do you a favor, and everyone has something else to do other than answering PIClist questions. You want to make the hassle factor as low as possible. ***************************************************************** Embed Inc, embedded system specialists in Littleton Massachusetts (978) 742-9014, http://www.embedinc.com -- http://www.piclist.com#nomail Going offline?
