Before I asked about PCB software, here, but now I have a slightly different question.
I tried the FreePCB software, and I also tried the TinyCAD for creating schematics for my circuits.
Both of them have the same problem, not intuitive, and difficult to find the parts that I am using. For example for TinyCAD, I don't understand why they list ALL the parts in one list, why can't they group the parts, and also if the part is not in the list, why can't they have a generic part so that I can just write the part# beside it ?
Anyways, I found both of them difficult to use.
Do you know of any better software that is out there ? and also if there is any software where I can do both, design the circuit, then automatically convert that to a PCB layout ?
If it's not free, it's OK, I will try it out, and if it's not too expensive then I will buy it if it's worth the money
Thanks
