I think most of the pins are spaced 200 mils. I also ignore some of the rules.

I am taking it slow so I won't have to redo them all as changes are made to the gedasymbols.org standards. By the end of the week I should have around 100 symbols up. The rest need to be cleaned up to meet my standards. > > > from my subversion repository ( svn://dlharmon.com/geda/sym ) > > If there is interest, I will sort them out into tested and > > untested and place them on gedasymbols.

It currently supports DIP, SIP, DIH (Headers), QFP, SOIC, 2 pad SMT, BGA, and some others that I can't remember. http://dlharmon.com/geda/footgen.html What is currently on the web operates in batch mode and can generate hundreds of footprints from one file of definitions. I am now working on a CGI frontend for it so one can type in around 10 parameters on my website and get back a newlib footprint. -- Darrell Harmon http://dlharmon.com
