AI Thread Summary
To create a component placement file in EAGLE, users can utilize the "Board" view to generate a layout that displays component placements. The process typically involves exporting the board design to a specific format that includes designators and positions. Users can access the "Export" function in EAGLE and select the appropriate file type for component placement. It is essential to ensure that all components are correctly labeled in the design before exporting. This file is crucial for prototyping and manufacturing processes.

Dear Friends,

I have a pcb that I want to prototype. I am requested to send the component placement/designator file. Its supposedly to show components placements on a file. Any idea how can I get it ? I am using eagle ?

Thanks a lot in Advance,

Thread 'How might electronics be different if AC voltage was 72V at 45 Hz?'

Hey guys. I have a question related to electricity and alternating current. Say an alien fictional society developed electricity, and settled on a standard like 73V AC current at 46 Hz. How would appliances be designed, and what impact would the lower frequency and voltage have on transformers, wiring, TVs, computers, LEDs, motors, and heating, assuming the laws of physics and technology are the same as on Earth?

Thread 'What happens if shielded cable has a short to the shield?'

While I was rolling out a shielded cable, a though came to my mind - what happens to the current flow in the cable if there came a short between the wire and the shield in both ends of the cable? For simplicity, lets assume a 1-wire copper wire wrapped in an aluminum shield. The wire and the shield has the same cross section area. There are insulating material between them, and in both ends there is a short between them. My first thought, the total resistance of the cable would be reduced...

Thread 'Why does the amperage go real high if there is a low voltage short?'

I used to be an HVAC technician. One time I had a service call in which there was no power to the thermostat. The thermostat did not have power because the fuse in the air handler was blown. The fuse in the air handler was blown because there was a low voltage short. The rubber coating on one of the thermostat wires was chewed off by a rodent. The exposed metal in the thermostat wire was touching the metal cabinet of the air handler. This was a low voltage short. This low voltage...
