Fritzing my picaxe (sounds almost rude)

hi peeps

i've just been pointed toward the fritzing program for drawing my circuit diagrams in the future (thanks btw) but despite the fact that it seems to have every arduino board or picaxe chip under the sun i cant for the life of me find the picaxe28x1 board anywhere - it seems odd that such a popular board was never included - am i looking in the wrong places or has it simply never been made?

thanks for your help

I don’t have the Fritzing software installed, but,

a quick search seems to make me believe that you can at least download it from http://code.google.com/p/fritzing/source/browse/trunk/fritzing/parts/core/PICAXE_28X1.fzp?spec=svn4280&r=4280 or there abouts. Even a simple copy/paste, if no download option is available.

DOH! That is just the chip. Can you put a circuit together and then use that circuit in other circuits? If so, you could draw up a 28x1 board, save it, and then just load it into your editor when you wanted to use it.

Picaxe 28x1 is available

See here. Is this what you miss?

Well I only did some light

Well I only did some light research, as I’m still not enough “emotionally envolved” w/ Fritzing but:

http://fritzing.org/learning/tutorials/creating-custom-parts/

Also here seems to be a sort of repo for user made parts:

http://code.google.com/p/fritzing/issues/detail?id=875

I would have prefer a nicer, prettier (UI-full/API-full) regarding usability repo, but then again for such a thing to happen the project has to lure enough interestees wanting to contribute so that it can reach critical mass. Alas, to my regret, at this point I cannot be a very helpful minion :confused:

thanks

but having produced several versions from that very sheet - i was looking more for the circuit board pattern

thanks but…

been there, done that - its a very good place for finding the ultrasonic sensors tho

I actually notice that there

I actually notice that there was an HC-SR04 submitted part there… but after I’ve improvise on my schema, but I won’t be needing that for a while now. My latest accomplishments have been the… lack of thereof, plus 3 burned out I/O pins, plus countless hours of yielding… nothing :stuck_out_tongue:
