Anyone tried FreeRouting online autorouter?

Former Member

As I've been told to avoid Eagle's own autorouter, and Electra etc.

being too expensive, I kept searching and found something that claims to

be a free cost autorouter, but you have to run it over a website, no

downloads. Anyone else tried it and have comments?

  • Hi Bill,

     

    I've heard good words for the site, and a few EAGLE users do use it. Generally people who tell you to avoid EAGLE's autorouter simply expect to much of it. Autorouters in general are a tool, they will not replace a manual layout.

     

    I personally use it, to finish up traces if I have any miniscule airwires I can't seem to find. A really cool trick is to adjust that settings so that it drops vias to your inner supply layers directly, huge time saver.

     

    Remember the autorouter is a tool, and EAGLE's autorouter can be very helpful if 1) you know how to use it, and 2) You're reasonable with what you expect of it.
