Has anyone developed footprints for microstrip sections ? I have been trying
to do this with pads set to certain length and widths. Mitered corners are
particularly challenging to make as a library footprint. I have used two
pads placed side by side at a 45 degree angle with the desired
(assuming you can tolerate FR4 in your design).
