Open BOOSTXL-DRV8305EVM HW files in Eagle

Hey Benjamin,

I'll send you a private message and see if I can help you.

I second this request - it would be hugely helpful to be able to open the *.SchDoc and *.PcbDoc files with Eagle, as I simply cannot afford Altium!! Any help here would be much appreciated!

Asif,

It seems that Altium does not support exports into a readable format for Eagle. The *.SchDoc and *PcbDoc can't be used with Eagle right now.

The best that can be done is exporting Altium project files into a DXF file and then importing that into Eagle. This will not work for most situations though because not all detail can be retrieved from the DXF file. For example, importing a layer of the layout from a DXF into Eagle just gives you the board outline and some trace routes.

Best Regards,
Ben

Were you able to get the reference design in Eagle?  I would be interested in that as well.  It's easy enough to do it from scratch but don't want to reinvent the wheel if it already done somewhere.

Thanks,

Jon

Hi Jon,

The above solution was the best we could find. I didn't end up recreating the reference design though.

Best Regards,
Ben
