Brian, You can get IPC-2581 Neutral CAD database format from www.ipc.org.
You can get IPC-7351 information from several places. http://www.ipc.org/contentpage.asp?pageid=6.4.4.3 Or you can download many documents from www.PCBLibraries.com Download Center Documents section. You can also get a free IPC-7351 Land Pattern Calculator (called - IPC-7351 Navigator Wizard) by registering on the Main page of PCBLibraries.com. Over the past 3 1/2 years PCB Libraries has voluntarily helped IPC develop the IPC-7351 specification and the new Land Pattern Calculator. The IPC-7351 Land Pattern Calculator can export PADS ASCII data which can be imported into Protel. PCB Libraries will soon release 8,000 free Protel Library parts that were built by the IPC-7351 Navigator Wizard. The first true Standard Software Library (not built by humans but by a software program). Soon there will be a direct Protel interface in the IPC-7351 Navigator Wizard. And you can get this software program for free. http://www.pcblibraries.com/NWiz-Demo Tom H -----Original Message----- From: Brian Guralnick [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, June 27, 2004 10:56 PM To: Protel EDA Forum Subject: [PEDA] IPC-2581 & IPC-7351.
