Hello, I am new to kicad and am trying to create a new part. The ATMEGA328P chip has four different footprints, of which I am interested in two - a DIP and a TQFP. See page 2 of the datasheet here: http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc8271.pdf
I have already created another part which has two different footprints and I really like kicad's way of divorcing the part from the footprint. This is what I initially tried, but I've run into a problem. The DIP version of the ATMEGA328P has 28 pins, while the TQFP has 32. There are extra VCC pins, GND, pins and two more ADC pins on the TQFP. Is there any way of creating one part and having two different 'versions'? I've fiddled around with 'multiple components per part' and the 'edit pins per part' option, but after trial and error and lots of reading, it doesn't seem to be what I want. Must I create two different parts, one 28 pin DIP and one 32 pin TQFP? If so, it's not a problem, but I wondered if there was a way to have them both be in one part that I'm missing. Thank you in advance
