How to open ngff-cardem.sch?

General

Which application should I use to open following files:

I’ve tried different tools but none of them work. I’ve tried:

  1. AutoCAD eagle
  2. OpenSCAD
  3. KiCAD
  4. Altium

All report “not recognized”

Frustrated…

If I go by the folder name, it could be eagle.

Yes, there is also a reference to this in the file itself: <eagle version="7.7.0">

Eagle has since been purchased by Autodesk.

Indeed, it is EAGLE 7.7.0. If you have trouble opening it with a more recent version of EAGLE, you can always download older EAGLE versions at Autodesk Eagle

Thanks for the help!

I’ve downloaded the Eagle 7.7.0 from the autodesk, and still has problem to open it.

Eagle 9.6.2 doesn’t work either

How are you downloading the BRD file? Are you cloning the repository? Can you show the output of “git status”? what is the sha256sum of the ngff-cardem.brd file? It should be a579d5b6b8fd939f1f4481c0eec1c0d52e9964ce06c709f3227b8877b2dfe3c9

I don’t know if it is a Mac specific problem. I could open the files withh the latest Eagle version under Windows. And also iI was able to import them in KiCad (also under Windows), although I cannot say to what extent the schematics and board still match and are linked to each other.

The fact that you cannot open/import the files in any of the programs could of course indicate that the data is corrupt.

What do you want to do with it? Do you want to edit the files, or are you only interested in creating Gerber files?

Thanks! It works when I clone it.
