Fritzing: Open source PCB design

Arduino Technology

We wrote about Fritzing before, but they have a new Alpha version available that is worth checking out. I really like this program and can’t wait to see the future enhancements.

Fritzing is an open-source initiative to support designers and artists to take the step from physical prototyping to actual product. We are creating this software in the spirit of Processing and Arduino, that allows the designer / artist / researcher / hobbyist to document their Arduino-based prototype and create a PCB layout for manufacturing. The complimenting website helps to share and discuss drafts and experiences as well as to reduce manufacturing costs.
