DRV8301-69M-KIT: ControlSuite Eagle Board file Error

Part Number: DRV8301-69M-KIT
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CONTROLSUITE, DRV8301

Hello I am trying to open the provided board file in controlsuite for the DRV8301 Rev D EVM but every time i try to open it I get an error saying :

 

Loading C:/ti/controlSUITE/development_kits/DRV830x-HC-C2-KIT_v105/~DRV830x-HC-EVM-HWdevPkg/DRV830x_RevD_HWDevPKG/Layout/DRV830x_D1-RELEASE.brd ...

Error:

line 1, column 1: Start tag expected.

I have tried to open with multiple versions of eagle all with same error. I also updated controlsuite yesterday just in case i have a bad download of this file.

Please advise on how to fix.

Thanks in advance

  • Hi Jesse,

    The PCB of the DRV8301 board was designed with Allegro and the .brd file is a Allegro PCB file (it may be confused because Eagle PCB file is also using .brd). If you want to open it with Eagle, you have to consult with Eagle on how to import / export / conversion thing between Allegro and Eagle. Thanks.

    Best regards,
