Hi,
I am using the Relay RELAY_2RT from the EEschema device library.
I have a couple of question about it -
1. Why does it not use contiguous pin numbers instead using pins 1,3,5 8,9 and
12,14,16 ?
My guess is it uses a standard package with missing pins to get double
spacing. Please
It all depend what actual device the part was based on, but essentially it is
as you say. Relay bases have a long history.
Find the data sheet for the actual relay you are going to use and pick the
footprint from that.
My suspicion is that the device in the library is a DIL16 part so you
Many relays have a standard numbering system, especially if they are
intended to be plugged into some form of holder. there are some
variations, but generally they are two digit such as 11, 12, 13, 21, 22,
23 and so on, the coils are normally A1 and A2. I have also seen some
bases with a letter
?

Andy,
Thank you. Please send me the schematic part as well as the foot prints.
