PCB Design ?
Hi,
I'm designing my custom·Propeller Proto board in Eagle for my TLC5940 project and I'm needing
to add a VGA & PS/2 mouse/kbd·connector to it, but I can't find any Eagle VGA mouse/kbd
connector components·in lbr format.
QUESTION:
Does anyone know of an VGA mouse/kbd connectors that will work in Eagle ?
This is going to be a cool board !, If I can find the connectors, It's also going to
have a SD card.
Here's· a picture of the board, It will run a 1 sqft. LED Matrix·Panel @·19mm Dot Pitch. Thats 768 led's!

It's not completed yet, but getting there.
What do you think ?

I have a tree growing out of my head, but
what do you expect ? I'm a programmer.

That's a very good piece of advice. I always buy the components before I do the pcb, and it is also how I end up with loads of unused components
I am curious to learn more about your 1 square foot LED board. Is it a PCB you are designing? Does it have more TLC5940s on it?
To prototype your design you could buy a couple of the TLC5940 driver boards at the Brilldea website and then use a Propeller Protoboard with the VGA/Mouse/Keyboard and add an SD card.
I agree with Ale, be sure you purchase or confirm part footprints before desinging with them.
