Find PCB Footprints and Schematic Symbols Within EAGLE

Find PCB Footprints and Schematic Symbols Within EAGLE launched on March 4, 2016 with 12 votes, #1,962 of 4,409 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 10 years on.

In plain words

The SnapEDA EAGLE Plugin allows electronics engineers to search for and access PCB footprints and schematic symbols directly within the EAGLE design tool. The plugin is designed for engineers who need reliable CAD components for electronic design, offering access to a curated library with transparent quality standards. It eliminates the need to leave EAGLE to find parts, streamlining the component selection process for circuit board and schematic design workflows.

From the sources

When we initially launched SnapEDA , the goal was to make it as easy as possible for engineers to find CAD models (PCB footprints, schematic symbols, 3D models) for their electronic design tool of choice, in a way that provided them with unprecedented transparency into standards and quality. Our vision was to give engineers the freedom to innovate and optimize their designs, with the infrastructure (CAD building blocks) firmly in place to support them in this process. Since then, our focus continues to be on expanding the library, updating export support for EDA tools, and launching innovative CAD library features, such as the first on-demand parts request service, and our Diagnostic…from blog.snapeda.com
