ExpressPCB - PCB design software free download

ExpressPCB software is used as PCB designing tool. This is supported by Windows xp, vista and also for windows 7. This software is easy to learn and can also be used simply.This software can be expressed in two ways such as ExpressSCH and ExpressPCB. ExpressSCH is used for drawing schematics and ExpressPCB is used for drawing circuit board layouts.

  The advantage to using their software and mini-board size is that, if desired, you can order professionally made boards, 3 for $59 (the price has varied slightly over the years).
This is a nice deal for robot hobbyists that don’t need production quantity runs. Their boards are of higher quality (greater accuracy, plated through holes, and tin coating) than is usually possible to make at home.
ExpressPCB  is quite good and easy to get started with.

The disadvantage to using their software is that its breadth of capabilities and components library are somewhat limited, although you can create custom components. Also, you’re stuck with their file format, which is a problem if you want to order production boards from someone else.  

For all the positive reasons, I chose to use the free ExpressPCB software, and I happily continue to do so to this day
