Footprints

Footprints

Some of the components already have their footprints assigned in the original library,

e.g. all PSpice libraries. For the TEST POINTS, you might need to assign footprints to

them. If any component has no footprint assigned, this window will appear:



(1) Click “Link existing footprint to component” button

(2) You will have different libraries and different footprints exist

(3) For TEST POINTS, choose LAYOUT library

(4) Then choose “TP” form the list below and click OK

(5) Repeat this procedure for every unassigned component

Resistors & Capacitors Footprints

(6) For resistors, highlight the component and right click to edit its property to assign

the AX/R05 footprint (the

(7) For ceramic capacitors, select from the TM_CYLND for cylindrical capacitors or

TM_CAP for ceramic capacitors

(8) Always print the footprint for your layout on a paper and match physically with

your components before final PCB printing¼ Watt) from the Axial library TM_AXIAL
