L9110 H-bridge module


ICSP pads for pogo pins

Does not run on MacOSSierra

0.9.3 works fine on my macbook pro running macOS Sierra 10.12.3.
It took less than a minute to transfer everything to Applications. When I started it Fritzing asked if I wanted to get updates for the parts list: that took less than a minute.

Pretty good.

For next time, in SCH you will notice some wires snap to centres of pins, and in PCB the pins aren't assigned and it could probably use an outline.

Keep hacking FZ could use more parts :slight_smile:

Steps I took that resulted in the problem:

I just started the program

What I expected should have happened instead:

I did not do anything, the program started and locked up

My version of Fritzing and my operating system:

Version of Fritzing: 0.9.3b
My operating system is Windows 10, build 10586.753, version is 1511

Probably not :slight_smile: (this is a fairly common problem). When it first starts Fritzing without saying or indicating anything accesses github to update the parts library and appears to hang. If you wait for it usually it will eventually complete and run. It has been said that pre installing git makes this much faster. Although I've never (on Win7 pro) had to wait for more than a couple of minutes longer times have been reported. If it is now crashing when you try and start it (or reporting that it is missing dlls which is another common problem) then you may need to clear the user directories to fix that (post and/or check the forums for the instructions as this has come up recently). Good luck!

Re: the DC barrel at the back of the Arduino - after much frustration with the poor quality of the Mega 2560 (the layout is dimensional way off and a lot of the connections are missing) - I have reworked it. Included in that are connections for the barrel jack. Once I have fully road tested the new version I will post it here for feedback and then GIT it. If the Mega meets approval, Iwill do the same for the Uno and a couple of the other other popular 'duino boards. It is quite a radical departure especially in the schematic view, so people will probably hate it.

I was going to create a plug for it. Looks like you beat me to it @Vanepp, big thanks. Even if I have to polish / tweak it a bit, it's a big help.

You are mos welcome, it certainly needs some tweeking :slight_smile: for starters it doesn't look to need bendable legs. The things likely to connect to it (the batteries mostly and a projected but not yet made wall wart) will have bendable leads with male connectors. The female connectors on the plug mean it won't connect to most things and thus the bendable legs aren't that useful, stub outputs to female connectors are a better bet (I just haven't done it yet). The schematic view is very ugly and needs something better but I don't know how. It may be useful to have a plug with bendable leads and male connectors that would connect in the breadboard or other female connectors as a separate part though.

This program is a piece of ****

A recipe: essential ingredients for successful Fritzing:

  1. Add 500 tonnes of patience.
  2. Add 5 installations, swiftly broken.
  3. Add one forehead, beaten vigorously against the wall.
  4. Add a liberal sprinkling of swearing
  5. Add an even bigger sprinkling of swearing
  6. Stir in arcane spice of XML and SVG.
  7. Knead in several litres of lubricating genius oil from the forums.
  8. Carefully decant the mixture with flame-proof tongs into a bomb-proof box and place at the centre of your life.
  9. Leave for many hours until your day job shrinks into insignificance.
  10. Remember it is all worth it, because nobody else out there is doing anything remotely as good that is Open Source and free.

In other words: If you can't code something better - don't call it ****.

Spurious unrouted connections in BB view

$

Steps I took that resulted in the problem:

Started Fritzing.
Switch to BB view
Added Arduino Uno
Added two ceramic capacitors
Plugged first capacitor into two unconnected locations on the board - status bar says: no connections to route
Plugged second capacitor into pin 8 and 9 of Arduino headers - 0 of 2 nets routed - two connections still to be routed
Removed second capacitor and dragged wires from arduino 8 and 9 to capacitor - routing completed.
...

What I expected should have happened instead:

routing completed or nothing to route in all cases.
...

My version of Fritzing and my operating system:

Windows 10 Pro 1607 14292.693
Version 0.9.3 (b5c895d327c44a3114e5fcc9d8260daf0cbb52806 2016-04-19) 64 [Qt 5.6.0]
...

Please also attach any files that help explaining this problem

Hi, thank you for sharing this. It's exactly what I was needing. Do you have the adding of third wire done ? Sorry but my spanish is worst than my bad english :slight_smile:

@vanepp - how did you save the BB as new part to get to the code please? Save as new part is disabled for me on all breadboards...

ESP-32 (WROOM or S version) "naked" board part exists?

I grabbed the svgs and fpz from the core parts directory breadboard2 and then the associated svgs from the svg directories and built a new part from them :slight_smile: Fritzing appears happy with it even though it isn't blessed by parts editor.
Here is a copy to save you the trouble:

Thanks @vannep. Bypassing tye parts editor? You rebel you!
I am making a part shortly that needs to be positionable below any breadboard or stripboard. Any ideas what edits I need to make to the fpz to make that happen? Thanks.

I'm not sure you can, one of the features of the breadboard family (I'm told by @steelgoose who is the source of most of my good information :slight_smile: ) is that they are always on the bottom. Steve may know of a way though.

I only really need it behave like a breadboard and respond to send to back, that's good enough.

Hello all!,

I am new in electronic and I don't know how I can design a PCB for an Arduino Uno R3,
a CC 3000 Shield and (https://www.adafruit.com/product/1491) and
a DHT11 (http://www.adafruit.com/product/386).

Best Regards!

Do you want to make a pcb or (as seems more probable) make a drawing of the connections of the 3 parts mentioned connected together? In the later case Fritzing can do that for you. The Uno is in core parts, and I expect the other two may be in the adafruit parts repository (they don't appear to be in core with a quick search).

@sgparry0407 I don't think it is possible... You would probably need to make it as a breadboard part moduleId="?????_BreadboardModuleID" then I suppose you could slide one breadboard part under the other breadboard. But you would loose some functionality... like no schematic or pcb. Another option would be is to make the breadboard as a part and not a breadboard. Take the "BreadboardModuleID" out and rename it. Then you could move it to any layer (above or below). I helped someone with a part a long, long time ago with the breadboard part that had no pcb/schematic and part of it with pcb/schematic. As I recall, we had to the the hybrid for the breadboard pins...
