The XLP seems to promise a great solution to this end. </span></div><div class="" style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</div><div class="" style="margin:0;margin:0in 0in 0pt;text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:12pt;color:#000000;font-family:verdana,geneva;">Coming to this element14 site, I also got a chance to evaluate the <a class="jive-link-wiki-small" href="https://www.element14.com/community/docs/DOC-13200/l/eagle-by-cadsoft-computer-inc">EAGLE CAD</a> software.

The template consists of just the MCU with all its pins mapped out to two header connectors. It is uploaded here for reference. It is in the EAGLE format – and can be viewed using EAGLE (you can download it <a class="jive-link-external-small" href="ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/eagle/program/latest/eagle-win.exe" rel="nofollow ugc noopener" target="_blank">here</a>).</span></span></div><div class="" style="margin:0;margin:0in 0in 0pt;text-align:left;"><span style="font-size:12pt;color:#000000;font-family:Times New Roman;"><span><a href="https://community.element14.com/resized-image/__size/275x194/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-78/6175.contentimage_5F00_1990.jpg"><img alt="image" src="https://community-storage.element14.com/communityserver-components-secureimagefileviewer/communityserver/wikis/components/files/00/00/00/00/78/6175.contentimage_1990.jpg-275x194.jpg?sv=2016-05-31&amp;sr=b&amp;sig=576Fn0uywZHGYOsHUbIZDVnFQM6zz%2Fe%2B11fBKK9JYqc%3D&amp;se=2026-08-13T23%3A59%3A59Z&amp;sp=r&amp;_=f30WRCYB/Bk0pWucRf91Ug==" style="max-height: 194px;max-width: 275px;" /></a></span><span><a href="https://community.element14.com/resized-image/__size/244x189/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-78/5670.contentimage_5F00_1991.jpg"><img loading="lazy" alt="image" src="https://community-storage.element14.com/communityserver-components-secureimagefileviewer/communityserver/wikis/components/files/00/00/00/00/78/5670.contentimage_1991.jpg-244x189.jpg?sv=2016-05-31&amp;sr=b&amp;sig=T%2BgFxDjjwDW7U%2BhH6SKmv279DdrmsDeAQIoVoLhvWXk%3D&amp;se=2026-08-13T23%3A59%3A59Z&amp;sp=r&amp;_=XeTOI2xi8GyAehm+7/EbqA==" style="max-height: 189px;max-width: 244px;" /></a></span></span></div> <div class="migration-injected-attachments"><div style="font-weight:bold;margin:15px 0 5px 0;">Attachments:</div><div></div><table style="border:0;"><tbody><tr><td colspan="2"><span class="_se_attachment" id="attid_https://www.element14.com/community/api/core/v3/attachments/2443"><a href="https://community.element14.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-78/xlpnew1.brd.zip">community.element14.com/.../xlpnew1.brd.zip</a></span></td></tr><tr><td colspan="2"><span class="_se_attachment" id="attid_https://www.element14.com/community/api/core/v3/attachments/2444"><a href="https://community.element14.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-78/xlpnew1.sch.zip">community.element14.com/.../xlpnew1.sch.zip</a></span></td></tr></tbody></table></div><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: low_power, xlp, nanowatt, pic16lf727, pic</div>
