How do you draw pin grid array in cadsoft Eagle PCB?

I'd like to use a processor that uses a pin grid array. Basically, I'd like to make the prototyping PCB board for it. I'm new to eagle. How can I connect the inner PGA pins to the header pins on the edge (without shorting the lines)?

Try not to make so long because your outer pinout is sensible. you should be able to do most of this on one layer. With a standard 5 mil trace/space process, you should have no problem fitting a trace between two pads. It should be possible to route that whole thing on one layer.

What Others Are Asking

Why are power supplies almost always made using through hole components?

Every computer PSU I’ve taken apart uses through hole components, though occasionally (not in all cases) surface mount components are found on the bottom. Don’t these have to be hand assembled? If so, why are they still doing this? even though labour costs are low in China, it still must cost less for a machine to pick and place SMT stuff.
