Fausto ; If you go here ;

www.expresspcb.com

You will get free schema design and board layout software.

Remember ; If your 56F800 isnt in the library ,copy another IC ,modify it
to look like your IC. Only the footprint needs to be correct !!!!!

But be careful . . .

If you use the ExpressPCB software, your designs can only be manufactured by ExpressPCB. You cannot shop around to other board houses. It will not produce Gerber files. Also, the ExpressPCB software has no error checking or design-rule capability.

On the plus side, ExpressPCB does have competitive prices, if you can get a correct design the first time (which is more difficult with their software).

Here is another place ; http://www.pad2pad.com/index.html

I would like to add some more ;

I just ordered 4 prototypes from expresspcb. Received them in 4 days.
Very nice quality. Im very happy.

There is a link between the schema and the layout.... so that all
pins that should be connected according to the schema lights up on
the layout when you select a pin.... Very nice !

So for hobby use I think its okay.
But for serious use were you later might want to choose between
different board-makers ..... no . So what.... most hobbyist only
want a few copies anyway .
