FYI, the header with pins 8, 9, 10 etc. needs to be at the weird 'mistake' position, not on the 0.05" grid. You can get the correct positions from the Eagle files for Uno etc.
Also worth considering adding bRestrict pads so that the autorouter doesn't try to route a pad to the bottom side of a Due connector pin - you can't solder those because the connector body is in the way. I've also found it useful to add vRestrict areas to prevent Eagle from putting vias too close the connectors (but that's because I have to use pins for vias).
Just checked and the header 8-SCL1 lines up against my DUE.... This shield started life as my MEGA shield which I've made boards from and that lined up........ Or am I missing something.
New version with better labels for debug header and shaping around the new pins that don't appear on the header. Still looking at the bit about bRestrict pads.

I've added a 2nd library with the restrict areas added.
Hi and thanks first of all for the library.
As far as I can see the +5V and die GND of the SPI header should be switched. This caused a short in my first pcb
Thanks anyways
Thank you for the Due footprint Eagles. I just noticed that in the SPI (2x3 ICSP) holes, the drill size should be 0.032 instead of 0.02755906. Regards,
Can anyone that has used this library tell me what the different is between the two devices? Normal vs Bottom Only?? When I load them into OSHPark.com, they both look the same to me....but I must be missing something.

Try turning the bottom and top tracks on and off, you will see the difference. If you are making double sided boards yourself you are effectively making two single sided boards and have to join the top and bottom using via pins or similar. If you are soldering manually you only need the bottom and by not having the "holes" on the top you can feed one or two tracks through the gap.

Sorry my Eagle licence has run out and I'm using KiCAD now. I'm not sure if I can actually change it now.
