Hello all -
I am a hobbyist who tinkers with electronics, mostly interfacing sensors and displays with various PIC microcontrollers, maybe sending the data to the PC, etc. I'll work on a project for a few weeks in my spare time, debug it and get it working, then take the parts off the protoboard and find another project that interests me and start over. My code is pretty well-documented (IMO!), and I try to scribble the circuit schematic in a notebook, but as the complexity of the things I work on increases, I have found I need a cleaner and neater way to document my hardware. So, I don't need to layout a PCB or do any SPICE modeling, but I would like some software that allows me to plop down a 28-pin part for example, resistors, caps, etc., and hook up wires to them so that I end up with a neat image that I can save or print out so I can recreate my project later. Don't need an IC library; as long as the pins are numbered and the SW lets me edit the part number, I can live with that. My projects usually have less than 20 ICs.
Any suggestions for this?
Thanks much, Bill
