You can think of this like the Google of electronic components. Note: If you don’t have a Library folder showing up on the Login/Settings tab you need to make a new library folder from your EAGLE Control Panel via File > New > Library.Īfter signing in and setting up a library folder, you can then start searching for parts on the Selected Part Information tab. We also suggest checking the “Do not show pictorial instructions…” checkbox after your first run-through of the search/add process.
