May 2022 update: Fusion 360 has changed its UI and the component search function is no longer a pop-up window (as shown at 0:28) instead it now appears as a panel on the left-hand side. See this official Autodesk update video for more information ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1ubwXFqwMZ0.html There have been some other cosmetic changes to logos and symbols, but underneath the cosmetic changes, everything still functions as shown in this tutorial video

Perfect, Thank you. I finally understanding grouping.

Thanks I have had fusion 360 for a while but I never knew you could do this

My dude. This series is mostly great, but showing that ESP8266 and saying "This would be a great way to practice what you've already learned" threw me for a serious loop. We do not have nearly enough info at this stage to recreate that. I tried, but I ended up just resorting to the standard CAD workflow to manually model a really lo-fi representation of the package, which is pretty unsatisfying. Would love a more detailed breakdown of how that component was created.

@WillDonaldson Год назад

Thanks for the feedback, I did want to keep the scope of the video narrow and concise but I can see how that leaves beginners in the dark sometimes. For the ESP8266 component I created the footprint and schematic using the same method as shown in the video. To create the package there is no inbuilt functionality in Fusion to automatically generate the CAD model like with the DIP IC. Instead if you go to grabcad.com you can find a model of the component you like and use the "link to existing 3D model" option to link the electronic library component to the imported CAD model.

Interesting that in Fusion 360 you seem to need to place mounting holes (which are only relevant for the PCB) into the schematics! Weird ... I just started to use KiCad where you'll add mounting holes only in the PCB editor ... Thanks for the great tutorial, though! Much appreciated! Will eventually come back to it if I ever decide to switch from KiCad to Fusion 360. 😉

@WillDonaldson 5 месяцев назад

Fusion does have the option to draw a circle (or any other shape) in the board editor and if you draw it on the "dimension" layer of the PCB it will act as a cut out, or hole. So that is a potentially different workflow that could work

@stephenobuge4294 11 месяцев назад

Hello, I tried to create footprint and subsequent 3D model of the ESP8266 component but the had trouble as it was bigger than the size of the footprint. Is it possible you can know what I possibly did wrong? From your example using the 74AHCT125, I repeated what you did and it worked out fine. Also, I did not notice whether you made any measurements of your footprint with respect to the dimension of the 3D Dip dimensions. Please kindly get back. Thank you.

@DrewMarold 2 года назад

Great tutorial. I tried watching the one from the Autodesk guy but he left out a lot of important info and I was getting really frustrated trying to do anything. At this point, I think I'm going to just yeet everything and start over.

@samyguerra665 2 года назад

Can you make a full tutorial (from making the PCB design to implementing the code on a stm32 for example) on how to make a bldc driver with current control? It's something that does not exist to my knowledge, and I know a lot of people that you like to see it.

@user-xm1ts5dt9v 2 года назад

Thanks for the nice guidance for PCB design using fusion360. It helped me a lot. May I ask how did you add legs on esp mcu?

@WillDonaldson 2 года назад

Not sure if I understand your question, but if you pause the video at 9:15 you can see all the pin connections of the ESP. Alternatively, if you are wondering how I created the ESP component, I would recommend the previous video in the series which shows how to create a component library ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-NITJZfhjppI.html

@user-xm1ts5dt9v 2 года назад

@@WillDonaldson I mean the receptacle pin header underneath the ESP.

@WillDonaldson 2 года назад

@@user-xm1ts5dt9v The four M3 mounting holes in the bottom right of the sketch? Those components are called "MOUNT-HOLE3.0", available in the "holes" library. Alternatively, if you mean the breakout header pins those can be found in the "Sparkfun-Connectors" library. I used the CONN_02 and CONN_06 components for 2 header pins and 6 header pins, respectively

@siddharthpatil4917 Год назад

there are only 2 resistors available in resistor library according to size and are not colour coded. any help on that ??

@WillDonaldson Год назад

As far as I know, yes, only generic resistors are available in most libraries. If you want them to match to the correct colour code you will need to create a custom component package

@geek4001 2 года назад

I am a complete beginner at Fusion 360. After searching online I found a esp8266 f3d file. How can I attach it to my custom created esp8266 footprint and schematic?

@WillDonaldson 2 года назад

The easiest method: save the CAD model in a new Fusion 360 file. Then in the electrical library editor, create a new 3D model (4th button in the top left). Finally, navigate to the folder containing the ESP model you found online and right-click the file and select "insert into current design".

@geek4001 2 года назад

Also do i need to resize the cad model to fit into the foot print?

@geek4001 2 года назад

The foot print i created and the 3d drawing is miss matching. May be my footprints are out of scale ?

@WillDonaldson 2 года назад

@@geek4001 yes, either the footprint and/or 3d model is the wrong scale. To check the 3D model use the measure tool (icon looks like a ruler) to check a the dimensions against the datasheet. The simplest measurement is to confirm the pin hole spacings are at 2.54mm. To check the footprint pin spacings, open up the inspector window (right-side panel) and click on the first pad, record the X-Y coordinates and check against the neighbouring pad coordinates and confirm the spacing is 2.54mm. Also check your grid-spacing settings in the centre-bottom of the footprint screen. Confirm your grid settings are the same as mine in the video

@geek4001 2 года назад

@@WillDonaldson Thank you so much for the support. I managed to fix the issue. Can you please tell me how can I print the footprint on paper to check if it is ok?

Where's the writeup on your diode-based multiplexer?

@WillDonaldson 2 года назад

thanks for reminding me, I forgot to create it, but I now have it posted on my website. The link is in the video description and also here: www.willdonaldson.io/blog/fusion-360-pcb

@bobweiram6321 2 года назад

@@WillDonaldson OK. It works and it's actually clever. An analog multiplexer is a bit overkill. You just need transistor with another resistor at the gate by connecting the source to both inputs going into the potentiometer, or just use power rail as the source.

@PoopSockles Год назад

I desperately want to recreate the components you have but this is not a lesson for out of the box beginners as too much is left out. I can still watch and follow along but being roadblocked 40 seconds into the tutorial is really disheartening. I tried to recreate the diode without any assistance and I am just too unfamiliar to do it properly.
