    Free PCB software

    Eagle is different but it's not so bad when you get used to it. It is the only package that I found that I could build a board with on the free demo version. The only restriction is the board size, 4" x 3.2".

    I am considering developing some products for the automotive industry and I need to know what kind of transient voltage spikes I have to allow for. What guidelines are there to follow or better yet, some 'rule of thumb' guidelines. I already know that the voltage is generally about 13.8 volts...
