The logical place to start is with the 7805 itself. Wherever the assembly of voltage regulator and
capacitors is built, it is likely to be in the wrong place. Thus it may as well be built over to the left,
out of the way, so that we can move it into place afterward.
The command to create the 7805 is
You probably will have to explore the library doing a bit of wild-card searching to find the exact
location of the component you need. Next, we need to add two capacitors, as recommended in the
7805 datasheet. Make a note of the positions for these capacitors by moving the cursor to where you
want them to appear.
The values of these capacitors can be set using the following commands:
To add in the nets, we again have to find the coordinates of the end points and then use them in the
following commands:
