As everybody else has indicated, you are best to create your own. I'll assume you are
getting your parts (or at least have seen the parts) in a Digikey catalog. I've used
the footprints for the Panasonic EXB-A and EXB-V8V footprints as they are called out
in the catalog and they worked fine. As
Hey, you guys rock! :
Thanks so much to all of you for the helpful feedback concerning the
resistor question I posted the other evening. Doing a handful of designs
layouts in Protel thus far has been a big learning experience, I can
defiantly say I agree with creating the

Hey all,
Rather dumb question here, but I'm stumped. Can someone enlighten
me as to where the footprints for surface-mount chip resistor arrays are,
and how I would set them up against my schematic? I want to use something
like an
I'm afraid you'll probably have to make the footprints.
As I'm sure I won't be the last to tell you: it's dicing with
death (of the project) to use Protel supplied footprints. There
are a large number of footprints in error to a greater or lesser
degree. Every single footprint used should be
i agree with John's view here
the supplied footprints are not all bad or entirely worthless but given
that you should check all footprints and put them in a
verified_footprints lib, the amount of work to make one is similar to
the amount of work to thoroughly check one
also there are widely
